Examples

• The laboratory used pyroceram beakers because they could withstand extreme temperature changes.
• Pyroceram cookware is popular for stovetop and oven use due to its thermal shock resistance.
• The scientist selected pyroceram crucibles for the high-temperature experiment.
• Pyroceram dishes can go directly from the freezer to the oven without cracking.
• The manufacturer switched to pyroceram for its superior durability compared to standard glass.
