Excellent resistance to high voltage

PRODUCT DETAIL

Material Overview

When compared to standard glasses with comparable thermal and mechanical properties, MACOR Machinable Glass Ceramic (MGC) demonstrates good thermal shock resistance and mechanical toughness.

Up to 1000° C., MACOR is suitable in an air atmosphere. Fluorine evolution will take place in vacuum systems if the temperature is higher than 600 °C, manifesting as hydrofluoric acid or boron trifluoride.

Halogen acids destroy MACOR at high temperatures. It is noticeably more NaOH resistant. Alkali salts barely have any corrosion-causing power.

Using common metalworking tools, MACOR is easily machined. It doesn't need to be fired after being machined because it is totally dense and hermetic. It is simple to maintain tolerances of fewer than 10 microns.
