SCHOTT Technical Glasses
Apart from its application in optics, glass as a technical material has exerted a formative influence on the development of important technological fields such as chemistry, pharmaceutics, automotive, optics, optoelectronics and information technology. SCHOTT Technical Glasses offers pertinent information in concise form. It contains general information for the determination and evaluation of important glass properties and also informs about specific chemical and physical characteristics and possible applications of the commercial technical glasses produced by SCHOTT. With this brochure, we hope to assist scientists, engineers, and designers in making the appropriate choice and make optimum use of SCHOTT products.

Thanks to its low alkali content, MEMpax ® acts as a highquality<br />
insulator. For this reason, MEMpax ® is an extremely<br />
appropriate material for applications that require electrical<br />
insulation at high temperatures (up to 450 °C). It is manufactured<br />
with eco-friendly refining agents.<br />
D 263 ® M is a colorless borosilicate glass for microscopy<br />
cover slip applications. It is available in different stock sheet<br />
sizes with thicknesses ranging from 0.1 mm to 0.21 mm.<br />
D 263 ® M is a perfect choice as cover glass for microscopic<br />
analysis and meets the requirements specified in ISO 8255-1<br />
and DIN ISO 8255-1.<br />
Ultra-thin glass – the flexibility of the down-draw process<br />
technology in terms of thicknesses has recently introduced<br />
the possibility to manufacture ultra-thin glass in the range<br />
of 100 down to 25 µm from some of the well established<br />
glass types mentioned above. Glass of that thickness can be<br />
rolled up on a core similar to polymer film.<br />

The chemical composition of D 263 ® M ensures valid and<br />
reliable research results due to its low fluorescence and high<br />
chemical resistance.<br />
B 270i ® , is an ultra white low-iron glass manufactured in an<br />
up-draw process. It offers high stability with respect to solarization<br />
in combination with high transmission in the visible<br />
wavelength range. It has a fire-polished surface and high<br />
chemical stability. B 270i ® is available in a wide range of<br />
thicknesses and various in-stock formats. Customized formats<br />
(e.g. rounds) and processing can be offered upon request.<br />
