ISO 3585:1998

Overview

ISO 3585:1998 specifies the main characteristics of borosilicate glass 3.3, focusing on its physical and chemical properties relevant to its use in laboratory glassware, glass plant, pipelines, and fittings. This international standard facilitates consistency and quality in the selection and identification of borosilicate glass 3.3 for scientific and industrial applications. Glass characterized by this standard is known for its excellent thermal and chemical resistance, making it highly suitable for demanding environments where precision and durability are essential.

Key Topics

• The standard outlines nominal values for important properties such as density, coefficient of mean linear thermal expansion, viscosity, thermal conductivity, specific heat capacity, elastic modulus, Poisson's ratio, and ultimate tensile strength.
