'''Pyrex''' ([[trademark]]ed as ''PYREX'' and ''pyrex'') is a [[brand]] of glassware by [[Corning Inc.]] best known for the rectangular roasters with which its name has become nearly synonymous.  Pyrex was first introduced in 1915 as a line of clear, low-thermal-expansion [[borosilicate glass]] whose resistance to chemicals, electricity, and heat made it ideal for [[laboratory glassware]] and [[kitchenware]]. In the 1930s Corning Inc expanded the brand to include kitchen products made of [[soda–lime glass]] and other materials.<ref>{{Cite web |date=November 24, 2014 |title=A CENTURY OF PYREX |url=https://www.cmog.org/article/pyrex |website=Corning Museum of Glass}}</ref>

In 1998, the kitchenware division of Corning Inc. responsible for the development of Pyrex spun off from its parent company as Corning Consumer Products Company, subsequently renamed [[Corelle Brands]]. Corning Inc. no longer manufactures or markets consumer products, only industrial ones.

[[Borosilicate glass]] was first made by German chemist and glass technologist [[Otto Schott]], founder of [[Schott AG]] in 1893, 22 years before Corning produced the Pyrex brand. Schott AG sells the product under the name "Duran".

In 1908, Eugene Sullivan, director of research at [[Corning Inc.|Corning Glass Works]], developed Nonex, a borosilicate low-expansion glass, to reduce breakage in shock-resistant lantern globes and battery jars. Sullivan had learned about Schott's borosilicate glass as a doctoral student in [[Leipzig]], [[Germany]]. Jesse Littleton of Corning discovered the cooking potential of borosilicate glass by giving his wife Bessie Littleton a casserole dish made from a cut-down Nonex battery jar. Corning removed the [[lead]] from Nonex and developed it as a consumer product.<ref name="IDSAQuote">[http://www.industrialdesignhistory.com/node/137 Corning Pyrex Bakeware], Carroll M. Gantz, Design Chronicles: Significant Mass-produced Designs of the 20th Century, Schiffer Publications, Ltd. 2005</ref> Pyrex made its public debut in 1915 during [[World War I]], positioned as an American-produced alternative to Duran.

A Corning executive gave the following account of the [[etymology]] of the name "Pyrex":

{{blockquote|The word PYREX is probably a purely arbitrary word which was devised in 1915 as a trade-mark for products manufactured and sold by Corning Glass Works. While some people have thought that it was made up from the [[Greek language|Greek]] [[wikt:πῦρ|{{transliteration|grc|pyr}}]] and the [[Latin]] {{lang|la|rex}}, we have always taken the position that no graduate of [[Harvard University|Harvard]] would be guilty of such a classical [[hybrid word|hybrid]]. Actually, we had a number of prior trade-marks ending in the letters ''ex''. One of the first commercial products to be sold under the new mark was a pie plate, and in the interests of [[euphonism]] the letter r was inserted between ''pie'' and ''ex'' and the whole thing condensed to PYREX.<ref>{{cite journal | journal = [[American Speech]] | volume = 32 | issue = 4 | year = 1957 | page = 290 | title = title unknown | last = Mathews | first = MM}}</ref>}}

Corning purchased the [[Macbeth-Evans Glass Company]] in 1936 and their Charleroi, PA plant was used to produce Pyrex opal ware bowls and bakeware made of tempered soda–lime glass.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Macbeth-Evans Glass Company {{!}} ArchivesSpace Public Interface |url=https://archivesspace.cmog.org/agents/corporate_entities/20 |access-date=2022-10-16 |website=archivesspace.cmog.org}}</ref> In 1958 an internal design department was started by John B. Ward. He redesigned the Pyrex ovenware and Flameware. Over the years, designers such as [[Penny Sparke]], [[Betty Baugh]], Smart Design, TEAMS Design, and others have contributed to the design of the line.

Corning divested itself of the Corning Consumer Products Company (now known as [[Corelle Brands]]) in 1998 and production of consumer Pyrex products went with it. Its previous licensing of the name to [[Newell Rubbermaid|Newell Cookware Europe]] remained in effect.<ref name="History">{{cite web |url=http://www.pyrexware.com/thetruthaboutpyrex/manu.htm |title=Manufacturing History |publisher=Pyrex Products

Older clear-glass Pyrex manufactured by Corning, Arc International's Pyrex products, and Pyrex [[laboratory glassware]] are made of borosilicate glass. According to the [[National Institute of Standards and Technology]], borosilicate Pyrex is composed of (as percentage of weight): 4.0% [[boron]], 54.0% [[oxygen]], 2.8% [[sodium]], 1.1% [[aluminium]], 37.7% [[silicon]], and 0.3% [[potassium]].<ref>{{cite web | publisher = [[National Institute of Standards and Technology]]  | title = Composition of Pyrex Glass |access-date = September 8, 2016 | url = http://physics.nist.gov/cgi-bin/Star/compos.pl?matno=169}}</ref><ref>{{cite web | publisher = MadeHow.com | title = How Pyrex is Made | date = n.d. | url = http://www.madehow.com/Volume-7/Pyrex.html}}</ref>

According to glass supplier Pulles and Hannique, borosilicate Pyrex is made of Corning 7740 glass and is equivalent in formulation to [[Schott Glass]] 8330 glass sold under the "Duran" brand name.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.pulleshanique.com/02_borosilicate-glass.htm | title = Borosilicate glass | access-date = 5 June 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120315092729/http://www.pulleshanique.com/02_borosilicate-glass.htm|archive-date=15 March 2012}}</ref> The composition of both Corning 7740 and Schott 8330 is given as 80.6% {{chem2|SiO2|link=silicon dioxide}}, 12.6% {{chem2|B2O3|link=boron trioxide}}, 4.2% {{chem2|Na2O|link=sodium oxide}}, 2.2% {{chem2|Al2O3|link=aluminium oxide}}, 0.1% {{chem2|CaO|link=calcium oxide}}, 0.1% {{chem2|Cl|link=chlorine}}, 0.05% {{chem2|MgO|link=magnesium oxide}}, and 0.04% {{chem2|Fe2O3|link=iron(III) oxide}}.

In the late 1930s and 1940s, Corning also introduced new product lines under the Pyrex brand using different types of glass. Opaque [[tempered glass|tempered]] [[soda–lime glass]] was used to create decorated opal ware bowls and bakeware, and aluminosilicate glass was used for Pyrex Flameware stovetop cookware. The latter product had a bluish tint caused by the addition of alumino-sulfate.<ref>{{cite web |title=PYREX Flameware |url=http://www.nettally.com/attic/Pyrexflameware.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110104125655/http://www.nettally.com/attic/Pyrexflameware.htm |archive-date=January 4, 2011 |access-date=5 June 2015 |website=The Antique Attic}}</ref><ref name="Snopes">{{cite web |title=Exploding Pyrex, Urban Legend reference |date=18 September 2009 |url=http://www.snopes.com/food/warnings/pyrex.asp |access-date=2011-01-08 |publisher=[[Snopes.com]]}}</ref>

Beginning in the 1980s, production of clear Pyrex glass products manufactured in the USA by Corning was also shifted to tempered soda–lime glass, like their popular opal bakeware.<ref name="Aikins">{{cite web |url=http://www.pyrexware.com/thetruthaboutpyrex/index.htm |first=Jim |last=Aikins |title=Setting the Record Straight: The Truth About PYREX |publisher=Pyrex Products |access-date=5 June 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111026114654/http://www.pyrexware.com/index.asp?pageId=30|archive-date=26 October 2011}}</ref> This change was justified by stating that soda–lime glass has higher mechanical strength than borosilicate{{emdash}}making it more resistant to physical damage when dropped, which is believed to be the most common cause of breakage in glass bakeware. The glass is also cheaper to produce and more environmentally friendly. Its thermal shock resistance is lower than borosilicate's, leading to potential breakage from heat stress if used contrary to recommendations. Since the closure of the soda–lime plant in England in 2007, European Pyrex has been made solely from borosilicate.<ref name="History" /><ref name=":0">{{cite web|last1=Butterworth|first1=Trevor|title=Exploding the exploding Pyrex rumor| url=http://stats.org/stories/2009/exploding_pyrex_oct14_09.html |website=STATS |publisher=Statistical Assessment Service |access-date=5 June 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141120095647/http://stats.org/stories/2009/exploding_pyrex_oct14_09.html|archive-date=20 November 2014 |date=14 October 2009}}</ref><ref>[http://consumerist.com/2010/12/consumer-reports-breaks-a-lot-of-glass-investigating-shattering-pyrex.html Consumer Reports Breaks A Lot Of Glass Investigating Shattering Pyrex Bakeware] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120514061947/http://consumerist.com/2010/12/consumer-reports-breaks-a-lot-of-glass-investigating-shattering-pyrex.html |date=2012-05-14 }}, The Consumerist</ref>

The differences between Pyrex-branded glass products has also led to controversy regarding safety issues{{emdash}}in 2008, the [[U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission]] reported it had received 66 complaints by users reporting that their Pyrex glassware had shattered over the prior ten years yet concluded that Pyrex glass bakeware does not present a safety concern. The consumer affairs magazine ''[[Consumer Reports]]'' investigated the issue and released test results, in January 2011, confirming that borosilicate glass bakeware was less susceptible to thermal shock breakage than tempered soda lime bakeware.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://gizmodo.com/the-pyrex-glass-controversy-that-just-wont-die-1833040962|title=The Pyrex Glass Controversy That Just Won't Die|last=Estes|first=Adam Clark|date=March 16, 2019|website=Gizmodo|language=en-US|access-date=2019-03-22}}</ref> They admitted their testing conditions were "contrary to instructions" provided by the manufacturer.<ref name="Snopes" /><ref>{{cite web|title=FOIA requests examine glass bakeware that shatters|url=http://news.consumerreports.org/safety/2010/12/foia-requests-examine-glass-bakeware-that-shatters-.html?EXTKEY=I91CONL&CMP=OTC-ConsumeristLinks|publisher=[[Consumer Reports]]|access-date=7 February 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111206025207/http://news.consumerreports.org/safety/2010/12/foia-requests-examine-glass-bakeware-that-shatters-.html?EXTKEY=I91CONL&CMP=OTC-ConsumeristLinks|archive-date=6 December 2011}}</ref> STATS analyzed the data available and found that the most common way that users were injured by glassware was via mechanical breakage, being hit or dropped, and that "the change to soda lime represents a greater net safety benefit."<ref name=":0" />

Because of its low expansion characteristics, borosilicate glass is often the material of choice for reflective optics in astronomy applications.

In 1932, [[George Ellery Hale]] approached [[Corning Incorporated|Corning]] with the challenge of fabricating the {{convert|200|in|m|adj=on}} telescope mirror for the [[California Institute of Technology]]'s [[Palomar Observatory]] project.<ref name=glassgiant>{{cite web|title=The Glass Giant|url=http://www.cmog.org/article/glass-giant|website=Corning Museum of Glass|access-date=30 January 2015}}</ref> A previous effort to fabricate the optic from [[fused quartz]] had failed, with the cast blank having voids.
