High Technology Synthetic Fused Silica and Common Quartz

Many manufacturers define silica glass as a generic term to describe both fused quartz (made by melting natural quartz crystals) and synthetic fused silica (created through a chemical deposition process). Both forms provide an exceptional range of properties including:

Very low expansion coefficient
Broad transparency range from the deep ultraviolet to the near infrared
High corrosion resistance
High temperature capability
