NEXTREMA®
SCHOTT NEXTREMA® has strength and stability in harsh environments
NEXTREMA® handles extremely challenging conditions. Heat-resistant up to 950°C¹ depending on the material type, NEXTREMA® possesses a high mechanical strength, so needs no thermal toughening. Rapid temperature changes also pose no problem: this robust glass-ceramic can withstand temperature shocks of up to 820°C². Combined with a non-porous surface and a wide transmittance spectrum, NEXTREMA® offers a superior package.
