Shape The Liquid - Not The Solid

In traditional glass object manufacturing, glass blanks are produced that must undergo cutting & polishing to achieve their required final form. In contrast, the glass blocks, cylinders, rods or tubes produced by a new sol-gel process provides a major improvement in the production of special glass-moulded bodies for a variety of applications. The technology makes it possible to manufacture large silica glass objects without the tensions that have led to breakage in other, failed processes, and it has overcome perceptions that sol-gel technology is valuable only for thin films or small objects.
