Fused Silica (Fused Quartz)
Fused silica or fused quartz is a glass-type material. It has a fairly low density relative to other glass and glass-ceramics in the database.
The properties of fused silica include two common variations. The property values on this page show ranges across all of them. For more specific values, follow the links immediately below. The graph bars on the material properties cards further below compare fused silica to other glass and glass-ceramics (top) and the entire database (bottom). The length of each bar shows the given value as a % of the largest value in the relevant set.
Infrared (IR) Grade Fused Silica
IR grade fused silica is a grade of fused silica. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare IR grade fused silica to other glass and glass-ceramics (top) and the entire database (bottom). The length of each bar shows the given value as a % of the largest value in the relevant set.
Ultraviolet (UV) Grade Fused Silica
UV grade fused silica is a grade of fused silica. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare UV grade fused silica to other glass and glass-ceramics (top) and the entire database (bottom). The length of each bar shows the given value as a % of the largest value in the relevant set.
