I-Chem Brand 100 Series Glass Clear Boston Round Bottle, With PTFE-Faced Silicone Liner

This I-Chem 100 Series Boston round lab bottle has a soda-lime glass body and a polypropylene screw cap with a silicone cap liner with a PTFE facing. This lab bottle has a narrow mouth for substance control and containment. The soda-lime glass body provides visual clarity, solidity, solution compatibility, and versatility for use in an array of common applications, and it is heat, gas, and vapor resistant. Its Boston round shape is used for applications that require a rounded body, short neck, and narrow mouth to store liquid samples, solvents, and chemicals, and dry materials. The polypropylene screw cap helps to secure contents and prevent spills and evaporation. This lab bottle has a silicone cap liner to help seal the closure. An additional PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) facing resists many chemicals, moisture, and temperatures ranging from -400 to 500 degrees F. This bottle is suitable for use in general purpose mixing, storing, and sampling applications.

Lab bottles are used to store, hold, and mix liquids, powders, and other substances in a wide variety of scientific industries. Lab bottles have a more pronounced neck and shoulder than jars. Lab bottles are manufactured with a combination of characteristics in order to meet the demands of particular applications, such as for solution dispensing, mixing, and weighing, and use in centrifuge operations. They come in many shapes for specific applications, with a variety of mouth or nozzle shapes and sizes for specific use. Lab bottles are made from materials, such as glass (borosilicate or soda-lime) and an array of plastics, which are selected for chemical and thermal expansion resistance, transparency, and their adaptability in a variety of applications. Lab bottle interiors, caps, and lids are often lined with a protective material. Caps and lids help seal bottles to prevent solutions from spilling. The capacity refers to the fluid amount held by a lab bottle, and is commonly measured in milliliters (mL) and liters (l), and sometimes in ounces (oz). Lab bottles are suitable for use in chemistry and biology applications, as well as in pharmaceutical and scientific testing.

I-Chem manufactures vials, bottles, and other containers for critical sample collection and preservation applications. The company, a division of Thomas Fisher Scientific, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.
