Blow-molded from injection blanks for uniform walls, strong and heavy enough to prevent cracking or puncturing, capable of being used in freezers down to -100°C (-149°F); can be used for packaging and transporting hazardous materials for safety, durability and cost savings.

How to choose the correct plastic reagent bottle

HDPE material features: 

Versatile and indispensable laboratory apparatus. 

Blow-molded from injection blanks for uniform walls, strong and heavy enough to prevent cracking or puncturing, and able to be used in freezers at temperatures down to -100°C (-149°F); can be used to package and transport hazardous materials for safety and durability and cost savings.

Unlined polypropylene caps are leak-proof and do not use inner caps or gaskets that can cause creasing, leakage or contamination of reagents. 

LDPE material features:

Narrow-mouth bottles are tough and impact resistant; high transparency allows for clear viewing of liquid levels.

This translucent LDPE bottle is ideal for storing chemicals and standards, as well as collecting and storing distilled water.

The very low concentration of trace metal elements in LDPE makes it ideal for trace metal analysis.

Chemically resistant to most acids, bases and alcohols, it is suitable for transporting liquids and can be stored in freezers down to -100°C (-148°F) for long periods of time.

PP material features:

Use PP polypropylene copolymer plastic reagent bottles for storage of samples requiring autoclaving at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 125°C.

Chemically resistant to most acids, bases and alcohols, translucent with better clarity than LDPE and HDPE for easy liquid level observation.

Wide mouth design for easy filling of liquids, good leak-proof unlined lid, no lids or inner lids that can cause creasing, leakage

or contaminated solution, and can be sterilized by high-temperature and autoclave heat and humidity.
