The ESS ribbon is a sealing-in foil made from molybdenum doped with yttrium mixed oxide (MY) to achieve vacuum-tight seals in halogen and high-intensity discharge lamps made of quartz glass.

Advantages:

• High and constant quality (laseroptical measurement of the width, thickness and edge angle)
• Good adhesion between the quartz glass and ribbon
• No cracks in the quartz glass · no cracks in the ribbon
• Good weldability
• Good resistance to oxidation
