More about this product


As one of the leading manufacturers of tubing, capillaries and rods, SCHOTT offers a
prestressed, highly chemical resistant borosilicate glass with a low thermal coefficient of
expansion: DURATAN.
Using a thermal toughening process, the wall of the tubing can be prestressed which results in
glass tubing with high resistance to tensile stress and mechanical impact. If a DURATAN
tube were to break, it will disintegrate into small blunt fragments, which minimizes the risk of injury.

The base glass for DURATAN is DURAN. The toughening process enhances the properties.
This means the specific features of DURAN, such as the high chemical resistance and high
resistance to UV radiation in external use, are mantained.
USES AND APPLICATIONS
SCHOTT specialist glass tubing and rods offer inspiring and fascinating solutions for a wide range
of architectural applications. DURATAN glass tubes can be used for interior and outdoor
lighting, safety lights, sight glases, decoration, interior and exterior architecture, art
installations, among many other applications.

SUSTAINABILITY

The main focuses for SCHOTT are on using less energy and fewer resources and lowering the
emissions that result during the manufacture of glass. Our company continues to lower its
specific energy requirement per ton of melted glass by making a host of improvements to
process sequences and using pure oxygen for firing. This will result in a significant reduction of
emissions of nitrogen oxides and CO2 that harm our environment.
SCHOTT continues to systematically extend its ecological commitment by introducing
environmentally-friendly products and technologies. Examples include not only SCHOTT Solar
receivers for solar thermal parabolic trough power plants and photovoltaic systems
for generating alternative types of energy, but also eco-friendly CERAN Suprema and CERAN
Hightrans eco glass-ceramic that are manufactured without using the metals arsenic and
antimony as additives.
