Which is better, soda-lime glass or borosilicate glass?

Calcium soda-lime glass is a kind of common glass with the advantages of low cost, easy processing and high transparency, so it is widely used in the fields of construction, home and daily necessities. However, soda-lime glass has relatively poor strength and heat resistance, and is not suitable for high temperature and heavy pressure environment.

High borosilicate glass is a kind of special glass with high heat resistance and strength, so it is widely used in high temperature technology, laboratory equipment, medical equipment and other fields. In addition, borosilicate glass has excellent transparency and chemical stability, and can be used in a variety of chemical environments. However, borosilicate glass is more expensive to manufacture.
