The refractive index of aluminosilicate glass filler matches that of bisGMA and is very close to our X-970-0000. It has a negative coefficient of thermal expansion, which means it contracts slightly upon heating. This glass contains no barium and therefore has no x-ray opacity making it ideal to blend with our other glass fillers. CAS # 65997-17-3. Shipped in standard packages of 50 lb units.
Barium Silicate glass is an inorganic filler with a high refractive index of 1.580. It also has a high coefficient of thermal expansion and a high barium content, which increases its x-ray opacity. CAS # 65997-17-3 Shipped in standard packages of 50 lb units.
(5) Barium Borosilicate glass filler or BBAS has been traditionally used in the classic dental composite systems involving bisGMA and triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate. It is available in a variety of particle sizes. CAS # 65997-17-3 Shipped in standard packages of 50 lb units.
(2) Our Strontium Borosilicate glasses have the lowest refractive indices (1.500) of our glass filler products. They also have a low coefficient of thermal expansion. CAS # 65997-17-3 Shipped in standard packages of 50 lb units.
