Zusammenfassung:An electric arc discharge lamp having an arc discharge light source which emits both visible light radiation and UV radiation enclosed within an anti-solarization borosilicate glass envelope which is lead and arsenic free and having a transmission of greater than 90% at a wave length of 425 nm and a transmission of not more than 40% of said UV radiation at 320 nm; 8% of said UV radiation at 300 nm; and 0.5% of said UV radiation at 290 nm; said borosilicate glass comprising, in weight percent: from about 3.89% Na2O; about 1.5% K2O; about 0.15% Li2O; about 17% B2O3; about 1.4% Al2O3; about 0.6% CaO; about 0.35% MgO; about 0.15% CeO2; from about 0.075% to about 0.30% SnO2; and the balance SiO2. Also, a glass having the above composition.
