Why Are These Bottles Opaque?

These bottles are designed to store light-sensitive materials, chemicals and solutions. Being an opaque material of a dark, amber tone, the material of these bottles prevents light from penetrating your materials, keeping results accurate and employees safe! 

How Will These Bottles Arrive?

Bottles and closures are packed in separate polybags within the same carton. 

How are These Bottles Leak Proof?

The term “leakproof” applies to Thermo Scientific Nalgene products that meet the following criteria:

      a) Bottle/flask/funnel closure systems with closures smaller than 100mm, after they are filled with water, inverted, withstand air pressure of 2psig for 2 minutes, and no water escapes

      b) Bottle/funnel/flask closure systems of larger than 100mm after they are filled with water, inverted for 15 minutes, and no water escapes. Note: these tests, using other liquids, may not yield the same results.

To ensure safe usage, customers are advised to test Thermo Scientific Nalgene bottles and closures under conditions of their planned applications. Thermo Scientific Nalgene products are leakproof at ambient temperature and pressure when used with their Nalgene closures.

What Are These Lab Sample Bottles Made Of?

These bottles are made of HDPE, which has the following key features perfect for research applications:

• Non-leaching and UV resistant for applications involving light
• Withstands higher temperatures than low density polyethene, up to 120°C for short periods and 110°C for continuous use
• Brittleness temperature at -100°C for studying in cost conditions
• Chemically resistant for storage of most solutions

Uses of HDPE Bottles

HDPE Bottles allow for the convenient storage of samples and chemicals. High density polyethylene (HDPE) bottles provide very good chemical compatibility with a variety of lab reagents including:

• Acids
• Bases
• Alcohols
• Aldehydes
• Esters
• Aliphatic hydrocarbons

Highest Quality Polypropylene

These bottle lids are made of polypropylene. This material has various benefits including:

• Strong and sturdy, resisting any tears or rips which compromise hygiene
• Moisture resistant, ideal for using with liquids and substances
• Good chemical resistance for use with acidic or alkaline substances
• Fatigue resistant for use with heavy or sharp substances requiring analysis
