S.G.& P., Inc. has a full scale glassblowing facility which
employs a highly skilled staff of glassblowers. We do custom fabrication of
new glassware, as well as repair work.
We primarily use
two types of glass in our
fabrication: borosilicate and quartz.
Borosilicate glass
is used in the fabrication
of most laboratory apparatus. This glass
has a
high resistance chemical attack and
thermal shock. Due to a low coefficient
of
expansion, mechanical breakage is minimized.
Quartz glass is
transparent and contains
99.9% silica. Characterized by practically
zero
thermal expansion, quartz is not affected
by thermal shock.
