Properties of GG17 Glass
 GG17 Glass is a new special borosilicate glass of excellent chemical and physical properties with a silica content of 80%.  It is highly stable in structure and, as a result, has marked mechanical strength and very high resistance against chemical attacks.  Furthermore, due to its low linear coefficient of thermal expansion, this glass is capable of withstanding high thermal shock and possesses good molding ability.  It is an excellent material for making intricate lamp-blown articles and laboratory apparatus where external heating is necessary.
