  • Publication number: 20230100027
    Abstract: A lithium aluminum silicate glass ceramic, which, apart from unavoidable impurities, is As2O3-free and Sb2O3-free. The lithium aluminum silicate glass ceramic has keatite as primary crystal phase and a keatite peak temperature TP of the keatite solid solution formation in the range of 980° C. to 1090° C., and the keatite peak temperature TP is determined by dynamic differential calorimetry (DSC) in accordance with DIN 51007:2019-04 at a heating rate of 5 K/min. A ceramization method is also described.

  • Patent number: 11365889
    Abstract: A fitout article or article of equipment for a kitchen or laboratory is provided. The article has a lighting and separating element. The separating element in a region of the lighting element has light transmittance of at least 0.1% and less than 12%.
