1957 New Scientist 23 May 27/1 The name of this fabulous stuff, which Dr. Stookey invented, is pyroceram. It is harder than flint, light as aluminium, stronger (in ratio to its weight) than stainless steel.

1965 New Scientist 4 Nov. 341/1 Housewives who can afford to pay for..coffee pots made of pyroceram are by now accustomed to being told that ‘this is the material used in American rocket noses’.

1991 Albuquerque Jrnl. (New Mexico) (Nexis) 21 Feb. b1 Pyroceram develops ‘hot spots’ when used for top-of-range cooking. It's a poor heat conductor, but will withstand extreme temperature changes.

1991 Jrnl. Amer. Ceramic Soc. 74 1607/1 Creep-crack growth in the pyroceram occurred via a saw-tooth-shaped crack path in a continuous manner at 775°C.
