Due to its unique physical and chemical properties, high borosilicate glass has shown significant practicality in home life, especially in terms of heat resistance, safety, durability and other aspects that are superior to ordinary glass. The following is an analysis of its main applications and advantages in home life:

1. Kitchen utensils
High temperature resistant cookware
The softening temperature of high borosilicate glass is as high as 821℃, and it can withstand sudden cold and heat (such as pouring 100℃ hot water directly from -30℃), which is suitable for making glass pots, kettles, baking trays and other cookware. Its transparent characteristics make it easy to observe the cooking process, and it will not break due to sudden temperature changes. It is suitable for scenes such as microwave turntables and oven panels

Food storage containers
It has strong chemical stability, acid and alkali corrosion resistance, does not react with food, and is suitable for making fresh-keeping boxes, seasoning bottles, etc., and will not precipitate harmful substances after long-term use28.

2. Tea sets and beverage utensils
Glass tea cups and teapots
High borosilicate glass tea sets have high transparency, can retain the original flavor of tea soup, and are highly resistant to cold and hot shocks. For example, in winter, pouring hot water into a glass placed outdoors will not cause it to explode, making it suitable for making cold brew pots, coffee pots, etc. 

Water cups and cold water kettles
It is better than ordinary glass in terms of drop resistance, and when it breaks, it breaks into large pieces rather than shatters, which is safer

III. Home decoration and lamps
Lamp accessories
It has a light transmittance of 92% and is resistant to high temperatures. It is often used to make table lamps and chandelier lampshades to make the light softer and more uniform

Decorative ornaments and vases
High borosilicate glass has a transparent appearance and strong plasticity. It is suitable for making vases, art ornaments, etc., and is both practical and beautiful28.

IV. Cleaning and maintenance convenience
Easy to clean
The surface is smooth and not easy to leave stains, but it should be noted that when cleaning oil stains, avoid using dry/wet cloth to wipe. It is recommended to use special detergents or wax to dissolve oil stains4.

Durability
High tensile strength (40-120N/mm²), long service life, and reduce the trouble of frequent replacement13.

5. Safety and environmental protection
Non-toxic and harmless
The main ingredients are boron and silicon (boron 12.5-13.5%, silicon 78-80%), without heavy metals such as lead and zinc, and meet food-grade safety standards18.

Recyclable
After being discarded, it can be reprocessed into new products to reduce resource consumption and comply with environmental protection concepts28.

6. Limitations and precautions
High cost: The complex production process leads to a higher price than ordinary glass, which is suitable for scenes with high performance requirements48.

Adhesive sensitivity: Some high-borosilicate glass furniture uses special adhesives, and liquids such as tea should be avoided from penetrating into the gaps to prevent adhesion failure4.

Summary
High-borosilicate glass has become the preferred material for kitchens, tea drinks, decorations and other fields in modern homes due to its heat resistance, impact resistance, safety and environmental protection. Although the cost is high, its durability and safety make it more cost-effective in long-term use. When choosing, you can reasonably match it according to specific needs (such as high temperature resistance and drop resistance), and pay attention to daily maintenance to extend its life.
