A scientist working there gave his wife a battery jar made of borosilicate glass. Borosilicate glass is resistant to heat and very strong.

在这里工作的一位科学家送给妻子一个用硼硅酸盐玻璃制作的电池壳。硼硅酸盐玻璃材料耐热且非常坚固。

Borosilicate glass is also being used for astronomical instruments because the material is not affected by temperature changes.

由于不受温度变化影响，硼硅酸盐玻璃还被用于制作天文器材。

When you're baking with pyrex (which is made of borosilicate glass, the same type of glass most labware is made out of) the cookware isn't going into your brownies.

当你做烘焙时用 Pyrex（一种硼硅酸盐玻璃，而这种玻璃也是大多数实验室器具的制作材料）厨房用具不会渗透进巧克力蛋糕中。

A scientist from the Corning Glass Works manufacturing company in New York brought his wife a sawed-off battery jar made of the so-called borosilicate glass, resistant to heat and mechanical abuse.

纽约康宁玻璃制造公司的一名科学家给妻子带了一个用所谓硼硅酸盐玻璃制作的蓄电池壳，能耐热和机械冲击。

" In addition, refractive index can also be used to 'invisibility', for example, objects with high borosilicate glass materials can also be 'invisible' when moving in glycerol with a refractive index close to its own, " Chu noted.

“此外，折射率也可以用来‘隐形’，比如高硼硅玻璃材料的物体在折射率接近自身的甘油中运动时也可以‘隐形’，”褚指出。
