Quartz will transmit UV from 180 nm to 400 nm. Since quartz is made of silicon dioxide, glasses made from a high proportion of this material will also readily transmit UV. One suchglass is known as VYCOR, which is 96% silica. However, remember that the shortest UV is the most damaging to the skin and cells. This is the reason why UV Radiant bulb is made up of Quartz not Glass.
