Unfortunately, this depends upon whose Pyrex you are considering. The original Pyrex was a borosilicate glass, which has a low thermal expansion. The Trademark owners have allowed the name to be used nowadays by some manufacturers who use tempered soda-lime glass. But some licensees still use a borosilicate glass.
