Various Properties

Whether it's natural or synthetic, quartz -- a type of vitreous, or silica glass -- exhibits a number of unique properties. These properties make quartz ideally suited for applications where high purity is required or the use temperature is high. Very few materials can match the energy transmission of quartz, especially in the ultra-violet and infrared ranges.

Momentive Performance Materials, the world leader in quartz products, makes a variety of products from natural and synthetic raw materials. The method of manufacturing and the raw material used will dictate the final properties of the quartz product.
