Chemical Properties of Quartz Glass
Published time:
2021-09-17
Quartz glass possesses an extremely low thermal expansion coefficient, high temperature resistance, excellent chemical stability, superior electrical insulation, low and stable ultrasonic delay performance, optimal ultraviolet spectral performance, and transmittance of visible and near-infrared light, as well as mechanical properties superior to ordinary glass. Therefore, it is an indispensable excellent material in modern cutting-edge technologies, including space technology, nuclear energy industry, national defense equipment, automated systems, and industries such as semiconductors, metallurgy, chemical engineering, electric light sources, communications, light industry, and building materials.
Quartz glass is made from natural crystalline quartz (crystal or pure silica), or synthetic silane, through high-temperature melting. The melted product has excellent processing properties. Within an extremely high viscosity range, tubes and rods can undergo thermal processing similar to ordinary glass fine work. It can also be processed at high speed using diamond or silicon carbide tools to create various complex shapes of instruments and special products. The properties of quartz glass primarily depend on its purity, followed by the process or thermal regime. The presence of trace impurities will significantly affect the performance of quartz glass; simultaneously, slight negligence in the process or thermal regime will lead to various defects in the appearance quality, resulting in a large number of defective products.
