What functions do reagent bottles need?
Chemical reagents play an important role in the day-to-day operations of factories, schools, hospitals and research institutes, and proper reagent bottle selection is required for reagent storage. There are many types of chemical reagents with different properties, but what kind of function does a reagent bottle need?
The categories of chemical reagents are basically categorized by application and field, and many new categories were added overseas in the 1980s. The German company Imak is divided into 20 categories and 88 subcategories. The American Baker Company has 75 major categories and 124 subcategories. With the development of science and technology, the types of chemical reagents are increasing, the tendency of classification is becoming finer, and the types are serialized and matched.
As a basic container for storing various chemical reagents, reagent bottles must first be corrosion resistant. Chemical reagents include many acid and alkaline reagents. The material of the bottle should have excellent corrosion resistance to solvents such as acids and alkalis. Make sure that the chemical reagents are well stored.
The second is airtightness. Some chemical reagents are prone to oxidation or volatilization, and a tight seal prevents the ingress of outside air and prevents the reagents from volatilizing and oxidative deterioration after contact with air.
In addition, some specialized chemical reagents, such as silver nitrate, iodine, and other photosensitive reagents, have special requirements for the color of reagent bottles. It should be placed in a brown bottle to prevent decomposition after exposure to light. Reagent bottles with rye and water glass stoppers cannot be used for storage. Together, these various bottles form a storage container for chemical reagents to meet storage requirements for reagents with different properties.
