Many optical applications require a substrate material with a near-zero coefficient of thermal expansion and/or excellent thermal shock resistance. Astrosital, equivalent to Zerodur™ (registered trademark of Schott Glass Technologies) is a glass-ceramic material with ultra low thermal expansion.
Astronomical and x-ray telescope mirrors are prime examples of application. Another well known application is production of mirror substrates for microlithography.
Maximum available size: 2,000 mm Dia (or 1,000 mm Square) x 300 mm thick.
