SCHOTT 8360

SCHOTT 8360 is a lead-free specialty glass that offers almost identical properties to lead glasses, making it an ideal alternative for applications such as negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors. This soft glass also possesses low temperature sealing properties and a high dielectric constant.
