る成形面が劣化する不具合があった。However, the above-mentioned conventional optical element molding die has a property that molybdenum, tungsten, and tantalum easily bond with oxygen at a high temperature, and when it becomes an oxide, it becomes a powder state. Therefore, there is a problem that the roughness of the molding surface deteriorates. Further, in an alloy containing tungsten as a main component, it is difficult for boron and tungsten to react with each other during the boration treatment, and it is difficult to form a stable boride layer. For this reason, there is a problem in that tungsten is combined with oxygen and the molding surface, which is a mirror surface, deteriorates when used at high temperature for a long time.

は、上記範囲が好適である。In the above structure, San Alon is made of Si 3 N 4
Since it is a --AlN--Al 2 O 3 --SiO 2 -based structural material ceramic, the mold base material having this sialon has excellent thermal shock resistance and does not break during molding at high temperatures. Moreover, since BN is added to the mold base material and the wettability with the glass material is poor, fusion of the glass material can be prevented. In the above composition, BN
Is 50 wt% or more, the bending strength is significantly reduced,
The strength as a mold becomes small, while BN is 10w
When it is t% or less, the wettability with the glass material becomes large, and the glass material is fused. Therefore, the above range is suitable as the BN.
