Soda-lime glass and borosilicate glass are both silica-based, but a difference in composition gives them very different performance under heat — and that difference decides which one belongs in your application. Key Comparison Property Soda-Lime Glass Borosilicate Glass Main components SiO2, Na2O, CaO SiO2, B2O3, Na2O, Al2O3 Thermal expansion coefficient ~9 ×...

Low-iron glass is soda-lime glass with the iron content stripped down. That single change is the whole story — but it has a visible effect on color and a measurable effect on light transmission, which is why the two aren't interchangeable in every application.
