I am looking for a borosilicate batch formulation with a mid-range thermal expansion (~40-50) that can be melted below 2700 F.
 
dear glman,
try out this composition SiO2-72%,Al2O31.5%,B2O3;-14%,Na2O:-7%, CaO:-5%
Hope you will be able to back calculate to your raw materials. this composition should melt in 1450 deg centigrade. Alpha value will be between 50 to 55
Regards
Chatterjee
