Borosilicate glass is manufactured by melting a mixture of raw, naturally occurring minerals. Its primary chemical composition is:Silica sand (≈ 80%): The core glass-forming chemical.Boric oxide (≈ 13%): Replaces traditional soda and lime, acting as a binder to give the glass its unique durability and heat resistance.Sodium oxide and Aluminum oxide (≈ 7%): Helps lower the melting point and strengthens the overall structure.Why it is considered safeChemically Inert: Because the molecular bonds are incredibly strong, borosilicate glass will not react with acids, bases, or beverages.Thermal Shock Resistance: It can withstand rapid, extreme changes in temperature without cracking, which is why it is used for lab equipment, bakeware, and premium drinkware
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The glass is made of borosilicate material and features BPA-free plastic handles.
