The PP White Wash Bottle is a chemically resistant squeeze bottle used for dispensing liquids and rinsing laboratory equipment. Polypropylene (PP) is a rigid, durable material that offers higher heat resistance than common LDPE wash bottles.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Daily Rinsing: Use warm water and a mild, non-alkaline detergent to remove residues.
- Manual Washing: Clean with a soft cloth or sponge; avoid abrasive pads or stiff brushes that can scratch the plastic surface.
- Drying: Air dry the bottle upside down to prevent moisture buildup and bacterial growth.
Sterilization
- Autoclaving: These PP bottles are generally autoclavable at 121°C (15 psi) for 20 minutes.
- Safety Precaution: You must completely loosen or remove the screw cap before autoclaving to prevent the bottle from collapsing or deforming due to pressure changes.
- Cooling: Allow the bottle to cool fully before reattaching the cap to avoid permanent deformation.
Chemical Compatibility
- Suitable Liquids: Ideal for distilled water, detergents, alcohols (ethanol, isopropanol), and most acids and alkalis.
- Organic Solvents: PP has good general resistance, but avoid long-term storage of strong oxidizers or aggressive solvents like benzene, which can degrade the plastic over time.
- UV Protection: The white (opaque) design provides better protection for light-sensitive reagents compared to translucent models.
