Last week I witnessed what I can only call an "explosion" of a Pyrex baking
dish. .... My
chemist daughter tells me that Pyrex glass should be capable of going from a
warm oven into a freezer. She would heat quartz (not Pyrex) tubing up to
600 deg C and then thrust it into ice water.
I really don't understand the mechanism which caused such a violent event
to occur.
