The 27th China International Optoelectronic Exposition, known as CIOE, took place from September 9 to 11, 2026 at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center. Yancheng Mingyang Quartz Products Co., Ltd. took part in the show at Hall 7, Booth 7C05, presenting a range of quartz glass tubes, quartz glass rods, quartz crucibles, optical windows and infrared heating products.
The booth was arranged around product series posters and a glass display cabinet, so visitors could look at real samples while discussing dimensions, materials and working conditions with the team. This article reviews what was shown, the technical topics visitors asked about most, and practical points to consider when selecting quartz glass components.
CIOE is held every September in Shenzhen and is regarded as one of the largest professional exhibitions covering the full optoelectronic industry chain in China. With 27 editions completed, it combines product exhibitions, business matching and technical forums on one international platform.
For makers of quartz and special glass, the show is a useful place to meet engineers from laser, sensing, semiconductor, lighting and thermal processing fields. Many of these users need components with stable optical behavior, resistance to heat and consistent dimensions, which are the areas where quartz glass is widely used.
The booth was organized into product series, each with its own poster and matching samples in the cabinet. Visitors could compare tube diameters, wall thicknesses and finishes by hand, which is often easier than reading a drawing.
| Product Series | Examples | Typical Use |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz glass tubes and rods | Quartz glass tubes, double-hole quartz glass tubes, quartz glass rods | Furnace tubes, lamp envelopes, thermal processing |
| Quartz glass instruments | Quartz crucibles, flasks, high borosilicate glass instruments | Laboratory heating, melting, sample handling |
| Optical windows | Quartz sheets, sapphire windows, calcium fluoride windows | Viewing ports, sensors, ultraviolet and infrared optics |
| Infrared heating products | Quartz infrared heating tubes, quartz gold-plated tubes, quartz heaters | Drying, curing, directional radiant heating |
| Coatings and special glass | Infrared ultraviolet coatings, aluminosilicate window panels, ultraviolet germicidal lamps | Pressure-bearing windows, optical filtering, disinfection |
One of the questions raised most often at the booth was why quartz glass is chosen over other glass types for high-temperature or rapidly changing conditions. A major reason is its very low thermal expansion. Typical values are about 0.55 x 10-6 per kelvin for fused quartz, around 3.3 x 10-6 for high borosilicate glass and roughly 9 x 10-6 for ordinary soda-lime glass.
A lower expansion value means the part changes size less when heated or cooled, which reduces internal stress during rapid temperature changes. This is why quartz glass tubes and quartz crucibles are common in furnaces, lamp manufacturing and laboratory heating.
Approximate typical values at room temperature; actual figures vary with material grade.
Quartz glass also transmits a wide range of wavelengths, from the ultraviolet through the visible to the near infrared. That makes quartz sheets and tubes useful in ultraviolet germicidal lamps, optical sensing and light-source housings.
A full poster series at the booth was devoted to infrared heating products. Quartz infrared heating tubes convert electrical energy into radiant heat that travels directly to the target surface, so the surrounding air does not need to be heated first. This makes them a common choice for drying, curing, thermoforming and similar processes.
When discussing a heating project, it helps to prepare the heated length, mounting method, operating voltage and the surface to be heated. These details let the team recommend a tube profile and wire arrangement that fits the process.
Optical windows were another focus of the exhibition conversations. Each material suits a different wavelength band and working environment, so the choice depends on the application rather than on one material fitting every case.
| Material | Notable Feature | Where It Is Often Used |
|---|---|---|
| Quartz sheets | Broad ultraviolet to near-infrared transmission | Lamp housings, sensors, viewing ports |
| Sapphire windows | High hardness and scratch resistance | Harsh environments, high-pressure observation |
| Calcium fluoride windows | Wide ultraviolet to infrared transmission range | Spectroscopy and infrared optics |
| Aluminosilicate window panels | Strength under high pressure | Pressure vessels and equipment windows |
Infrared ultraviolet coatings can be added to selected windows to adjust reflection and transmission in a chosen band. Sharing the target wavelength range with the team at an early stage makes it easier to define a suitable coating.
Visitors often asked how to prepare an inquiry for a custom quartz part. The following steps summarize a workable approach.
Careful handling also extends service life. Clean quartz parts with lint-free materials, avoid touching heated surfaces with bare hands before use, and allow gradual heating and cooling where the process permits.
