What special property must glassware have in order to be heated?
I have no idea if this is what you mean, but glass should not be cooled rapidly or it will shatter. Other than that, there is nothing special about heating glass. It will eventually get soft and melt if you use very high temperatures. Pyrex is a type of glass that is more resistant to shattering than regular glass.

Why is pyrex not breakable?
Pyrex is made from glass that withstands high heat and temperature changes. Though not easily broken, it is not totally unbreakable. It just does not shatter when broken or break as easily as other glass.
Why you use pyrex glass in laboratory?
Because Pyrex glass is heat resistant so you can put it in an oven or over a flame and it won't break. There are many different cookware and bakeware vessels (pans, measuring cups, pots) that are made of Pyrex, also.

Where can you purchase a very large Pyrex mixing bowl?
How large? Amazon, Overstock.com, Bed, Bath and Beyond all sell Pyrex and you may find what you need on their web site. Or you could Google Pyrex (made by Corning) for other retailers. Pyrex is a special tempered glass that can withstand a lot of heat, so it is used for cooking. Pyrex brand also makes measuring cups, etc out of glass and some of them are tempered and some are not. But, a mixing bowl like you are talking about does not need to withstand the heat of the oven or stovetop so any brand will be just as good as Pyrex for mixing in. Try E-bay. Also, type in Pyrex. I noticed Craig's list sells them too.
Can pyrex be recycled?
Generally not. Pyrex is heat resistant and therefore can not be recycled in the same way as conventional glass due to its heat resistance. In fact it can spoil large quantities of recycled glass, and should never be placed in the recycling box. Theoretically, offcourse, any material can be recycled if a new use is found for it, pyrex could be e.g. be ground up and used for road foundations, however, the quantities household produce are not large enough to make a separate pyrex-recycling programme economically feasible.
How do you describe heat resistant glass for cooking vessels?
You can describe a heat resistant glass for cooking vessels by saying that it does not break under high temperatures. This is because it is made with a chemical element called boron. Pyrex is an example of heat resistant glassware.
What are the advantages of pyrex glass?
Are you talking about Kitchen grade Pyrex (Tempered Soda Lime Glass) or Lab grade Pyrex (borosilicate glass)?Lab grade contains more metals such as boron, sodium, and aluminum making lab grade glassware better conductors of heat.Kitchen glassware do not conduct heat as well which prevents burning the bottom of whatever your baking.Both are less likely to break than other glass types.Exaxol Chemical Corporationhttp://www.exaxol.com
