Bottle, Amber Glass

Bottle, Amber Glass

Description:

Amber Glass Bottles are high-quality containers made from amber-colored glass, commonly used for storing light-sensitive materials. The amber color provides protection from ultraviolet (UV) light, preventing degradation and maintaining the stability of sensitive substances. These bottles are widely used in industries like pharmaceuticals, laboratories, and food storage, particularly for chemicals, essential oils, and other materials that are sensitive to light exposure.

Specifications:

• Material: Made from high-quality glass, typically soda-lime or borosilicate glass, depending on the intended use

• Color: Amber-colored glass, which blocks UV light and protects sensitive contents from degradation

• Capacity: Available in a range of sizes, typically from 5 mL to several liters, to accommodate different storage needs

• Neck Design: Available with wide necks or narrow necks, depending on the type of material being stored and ease of dispensing

• Closure Type: Can come with various types of closures, such as screw caps, dropper caps, tamper-evident caps, or stopper corks

• Durability: Resistant to breaking or chipping under normal use, though can be fragile under extreme conditions

• Thermal Resistance: Borosilicate amber glass versions offer resistance to thermal shock, making them suitable for use in laboratories

• Surface Finish: Typically has a smooth surface finish for easy labeling and cleaning

• Sterility: Many amber glass bottles are sterilized or autoclavable for laboratory and pharmaceutical use

Uses:

• Pharmaceutical and Healthcare:

  • Commonly used to store medications, liquid pharmaceuticals, and injectables that are sensitive to light, such as vitamins and hormonal treatments

• Laboratory Applications:

  • Ideal for storing reagents, chemical solutions, standards, or biological samples in lab environments where UV light exposure could degrade the sample

• Essential Oils and Fragrances:

  • Often used for storing essential oils, fragrances, and aromatherapy products as these materials can be sensitive to UV light

• Cosmetics and Skincare Products:

  • Used for storing light-sensitive cosmetic products, such as serums, oils, and creams

• Food and Beverages:

  • Suitable for storing liquids, such as vinegar, olive oil, and alcohol, that may lose their quality when exposed to sunlight

• Chemical and Industrial Storage:

  • Used in industrial and research settings for chemicals or substances that require protection from light during storage

Features:

• ✅ UV Protection: Amber glass effectively blocks UV light, which helps preserve the quality and stability of light-sensitive materials

• ✅ Chemical Resistance: Glass is highly resistant to many chemicals, making it ideal for use with a wide variety of substances, including acids, solvents, and oils

• ✅ Durability: While glass is breakable, amber glass is durable and resistant to most corrosive substances, making it suitable for long-term storage

• ✅ Temperature Resistance: Borosilicate amber glass versions are resistant to thermal shock, allowing them to be used in both high and low-temperature environments

• ✅ Reusable: Amber glass bottles can be cleaned and reused, making them an environmentally friendly choice for storage

• ✅ Aesthetic Appeal: Amber glass bottles are often chosen for their sleek, attractive appearance in product packaging, especially in cosmetics and fragrance lines

• ✅ Versatile Closure Options: Available with different cap styles for secure sealing, minimizing contamination or spillage

• ✅ Easy Labeling: The smooth surface of amber glass is ideal for applying labels or printing directly on the bottle for easy identification

Safety Notes:

• Handling: Amber glass bottles can be fragile and may break under impact. Handle with care, especially when the contents are under pressure or when the bottle is dropped

• Chemical Compatibility: Although glass is generally resistant to most chemicals, ensure that the specific type of glass is compatible with the chemical being stored (e.g., borosilicate for highly reactive substances)

• Storage: Store bottles in a safe place where they will not be exposed to extreme temperatures, direct impacts, or vibrations that could cause them to break

• Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the bottles before reusing, especially if storing different substances to prevent contamination
