ILMABOR^® Laboratory Glassware

Material data

Our TGI borosilicate glass I-330 is a type of glass that can meet the highest demands of any laboratory. It complies in full with the international standards for borosilicate glass 3.3, e.g. DIN ISO 3585.

TGI borosilicate glass I-330 is characterised by its excellent resistance to chemical corrosion, high temperatures and thermal shock. This glass is therefore ideal for laboratory applications. And you can depend on that!

For your information, here is the chemical composition of our TGI borosilicate glass I-330:
