silica quartz glass

quartz glass melting point

Due to its high purity silicon dioxide (SiO2) content, silica quartz glass has a very high melting point.

Melting point: 1713 degrees Celsius (3115 degrees Fahrenheit)

This high melting point makes quartz glass suitable for applications that require materials to withstand extreme temperatures without deformation or melting. Its thermal stability and resistance to thermal shock are key to its use in harsh environments such as semiconductor manufacturing, high-temperature laboratory equipment, and optical applications.
