Here, one of our glass blowers is manufacturing a glass feedthrough. Several years ago, Torr Scientific extended its vacuum window processing capabilities to include production of glass‐to‐metal seals. We have our own #GlassShop which allows further development of the wide range of ultra-high #vacuum optical components. The glass shop is equipped with an induction heater that enables the company to develop its range of glass vacuum windows, #feedthroughs, and #OEM requirements for encapsulation of X‐ray and #photonic components. Our glass shop can manufacture multiple different glass‐to‐metal seal types. If you have an enquiry for OEM and non-standard glass‐to‐metal seals, you can contact us on sales@torrscientific.co.uk. Glass has an interesting molecular structure: it's a solid, but with a molecular arrangement more akin to a liquid. In most solids, highly organized molecules are rigidly aligned and closely bound. In liquids, the molecules have weaker connections and are positioned more randomly. Known as an amorphous (noncrystalline) solid, glass, while it's rigid like a solid, has a randomized molecular structure like a liquid. This characteristic (also present in plastics and gels) is why glass is transparent -- light waves are better at penetrating through this type of arrangement than through other close-quartered solid molecular arrangements. Glassblowing is a glass forming technique that involves inflating molten glass with the aid of a blowpipe (or blow tube). Glassblowing was invented by Syrian craftsmen from Sidon and Babylon between 27 BC and 14 AD. The ancient Romans were the first to establish large glass workshops, with glass being formed for both utilitarian and decorative purposes. Glassblowing exploits the liquid structure of glass where the atoms are held together by strong chemical bonds in a disordered and random network, therefore molten glass is viscous enough to be blown and gradually hardens as it cools down. #VacuumTechnology #VacuumScience #VacuumChamber #UltraHighVacuum #UHV #XRay #GlassToMetal #Tubulation #Quantum #Science #Technology #RD #Research #Development #Innovation #UKManufacturing #BritishManufacturing #Design #Inspiration

Glass is an amorphous, inorganic, non-metallic material that is transparent and smooth. It can be used to make utensils, decorate doors, windows and other crafts. At present, glass has become an important material in modern daily life, production and science and technology. With the development of society and the enhancement of environmental awareness, people have put forward higher requirements for the texture of glass products. GZTECH high-peak MOPA pulsed fiber laser GT series has made breakthrough progress in engraving on glass through extensive testings. Due to the hard and brittle nature of glass, improper control of laser energy parameters can easily lead to the expansion of glass microcracks, thermal cracking, or serious surface edge chipping. In order to pursue different haze, light transmittance, roughness and surface aesthetic effects, appropriate laser process parameters must be selected and adjusted.

Reagent Bottle Amber with Screw Cap 250 ml Manufactured from heat resistant, durable borosilicate glass with thick walls and crush-resistant corners. Thick wall, heavy base and reinforced rim prevent breakage during washing and transportation. These impact resistant, excellently thermal stable bottles are autoclavable at 121°C. Caps should not be closed during autoclaving. Angled neck form allows unrestricted liquid flow out without leaving any residue at the bottle neck. A large GL 45 bottle neck provides easy filling and pouring. Unique design pouring ring prevents drops and spillage. Caps are made from polypropylene with large ridges with increased grip. Cap inner design ensures hermetical and leakproof closure. Volume graduations on wall side offers better liquid level viewing and reproducable filling of the bottle without the need of a cylinder. Volume graduations and inscriptions are printed with white enamel. https://bit.ly/46qrgwZ

Dragon Glass Water Jet for cut size glass, it's a good option for cutting different glass sizes, or special shape of glass, then meet owners, architects requirements during your projects. What about the advantages of glass water jet? ❓ 💡Precision Cutting: Glass water jet cutting provides high precision, allowing for intricate and detailed designs. 💡No Heat-Affected Zone: Unlike some traditional cutting methods, water jet cutting does not produce a heat-affected zone. This is particularly important for materials like glass, as it helps prevent thermal stress and distortion. 💡Minimal Material Waste: This can lead to cost savings, especially when working with expensive materials. 💡Environmentally Friendly: It is a clean and efficient cutting method. 💡Reduced Secondary Processing: This can save time and resources in the production workflow. 💡No Tool Wear: Unlike traditional cutting tools that may wear out over time, water jet cutting does not involve direct contact between a tool and the material. If you have any questions on this, or have such requirements of your glass works, let us know anytime. info@szdragonglass.com https://lnkd.in/gBhAhGvT https://lnkd.in/gxT7fbCq #cutsizeglasspanel #sheetlaminatedglassforsale #cuttingmachineforglass #cutlaminatedglass #annealedglass #4mmcutsizeglass #5mmcutsizeglass #6mmcutsizeglass #6mmsilvermirror #12mmglass

OCCA Weekly Webinar: "Low emission premium interior wall coatings - advanced stain blocking and stain resistance for enhanced durability" Presenter: Maurille Secher of Synthomer. Venue: Zoom Webinar Date: Wednesday 20th March 2024 Time: 14:30 – 15:30 Register: https://lnkd.in/eZJHEsC8 Abstract: Nowadays, one of the main defects impacting the durability of water-based interior wall paints is certainly the staining of the surface, and this often triggers the decision of the owner or occupants to start some refurbishment work. Increased demand for flat matt finishes and the desire for deeper color tones brings further challenge for the lifespan of the applied coating. In addition, consumers have stronger expectations in terms of life cycle of the product they purchase, and they are increasingly concerned about the hazardous profile of chemicals they bring into their family home. In this webinar, Synthomer’s polymer expert will explain the challenge of stained surface renovation and how to achieve higher stain resistance in matt paint formulations. The latest material technology innovations will be introduced, providing sustainable solutions for water-based coatings with extremely low impact on indoor air quality.
