Quartz glass plate, as a kind of special industrial technology glass made of high-purity silica, plays an irreplaceable role in the laboratory with its unique physical and chemical properties. Its high purity, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, good thermal stability, excellent light transmission properties and electrical insulation properties, making quartz glass plate has become an indispensable and important material in the laboratory.
Application of high temperature resistance
The softening point temperature of quartz glass is as high as about 1730 ℃, can be used for a long time at 1100 ℃, the highest temperature for a short period of time up to 1450 ℃. This characteristic makes it excellent in laboratory equipment that requires a high temperature environment. For example, in materials science research, high-temperature furnaces are commonly used experimental equipment, and quartz glass plate is often used as the observation window of the high-temperature furnace, furnace lining and other components due to its high-temperature resistance to ensure the visualization and safety of the experimental process.
Application of corrosion resistance
In addition to hydrofluoric acid, quartz glass almost no chemical reaction with other acids, its acid resistance is 30 times that of ceramics, 150 times that of stainless steel. This characteristic is particularly important in chemical experiments, especially those involving strong acids, alkalis and other corrosive substances. Quartz glass plate can be used to make chemical reactors, distillers, burettes and other experimental equipment, effectively prevent chemical corrosion, to protect the accuracy of the experimental results.
Application of good thermal stability
The thermal expansion coefficient of quartz glass is extremely small, can withstand drastic temperature changes, even if heated to about 1100 ℃ quickly into the room temperature water will not blow up. This characteristic makes the quartz glass plate in the need for rapid temperature rise and fall of the experiments in the performance of excellent, such as thermal shock experiments, thermal stability test. In addition, in experiments that require precise temperature control, such as thermal analysis experiments, quartz glass plate can also provide a stable experimental environment.
Application of Light Transmission Performance
Quartz glass plate has good light transmittance in the entire spectral band from ultraviolet to infrared, with a visible light transmittance rate of over 93%, especially in the ultraviolet spectral region, the maximum transmittance rate can reach over 80%. This characteristic makes it widely used in optical experiments, such as spectral analysis, UV-visible spectrophotometer and other instruments, quartz glass as a light-transmitting element, to ensure the accurate transmission of light and the accuracy of the measurement results.
Application of electrical insulation properties
The resistance value of quartz glass is equivalent to 10,000 times that of ordinary glass, which is an excellent electrical insulating material. In electrochemical experiments, such as electrolysis experiments, conductivity measurements, etc., quartz glass is often used as electrode support, electrolyzer separator and other components, effectively preventing current leakage and electrolyte contamination.
Application of specific experimental equipment
Spectral analysis instruments: in the UV-visible spectrophotometer, infrared spectrometer and other spectral analysis instruments, the quartz glass plate is used as a light-transmitting window to ensure the accurate transmission of light and the accurate measurement of spectral data.
High-temperature furnace: As the observation window and furnace lining of high-temperature furnace, quartz glass plate is not only high-temperature resistant, but also provides a clear observation field of view, which is convenient for experimental personnel to monitor the experimental process in real time.
Chemical reactors: In chemical reactions involving corrosive substances, reactors made of quartz glass plate can effectively prevent chemical corrosion and ensure the safety of experiments and the accuracy of results.
Electrochemical experimental equipment: In electrolysis tanks, conductivity measurement and other equipment, quartz glass plates are used as electrode supports or spacers with good electrical insulation properties to prevent current leakage and electrolyte contamination.
Quartz glass plate plays an irreplaceable role in the laboratory with its excellent high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, good thermal stability, excellent light transmission and strong electrical insulation properties. Whether it is material science research, chemical analysis experiments, or spectral analysis, electrochemical experiments and other fields, quartz glass plate is an indispensable and important material.
