Product Variants of BOROFLOAT®
With a chemical composition identical to SCHOTT’s floated borosilicate glass BOROFLOAT®, the multi-functional rolled borosilicate glass SUPREMAX® shares many of its technical properties and benefits. However, as SUPREMAX® is produced in much larger thicknesses, the amount of applications is increased.
SUPREMAX®
SUPREMAX® offers a similar range of properties to BOROFLOAT® floated glass, but is available in much greater thicknesses. SCHOTT’s rolled production process enables these larger dimensions, while providing a large variety of advantages such as thermal and chemical resistance, as well as first-rate transparency.
CHARACTERISTICS
A technical flat rolled glass with outstanding physical and chemical properties. SCHOTT SUPREMAX® offers the benefits of low thermal expansion and excellent light transmission. SUPREMAX® is also available in a generous range of thicknesses (28.6 mm to 57.2 mm).
