FAQs:
What are LDPE wash bottles used for?
LDPE bottles are often used in laboratories for sterilization and to rinse labware such as beakers and test tubes. They can be filled with a number of cleaning liquids and detergents such as acetone
What is LDPE?
LDPE refers to low-density polyethene and is a type of squeezable and flexible plastic commonly used to make wash bottles. The durable yet bendable compound makes them an ideal material for storing cleansing liquids that require vapours from pressure build-up to escape whilst keeping air from getting into the liquid.
What is the difference between LDPE and HDPE?
Whilst both LDPE and HDPE contain similar properties, they are also very different. LDPE is much more flexible and is ideal for use in plastic containers or food packaging, whereas HDPE has higher chemical resistance and can withstand higher temperatures.
Difference between wide-neck and narrow-neck?
LDPE and HDPE bottles are available as either narrow-neck or wide-neck depending on the required application. LDPE plastic bottles tend to have a wide-neck to allow sterilisation fluids to be poured in quickly and more efficiently whilst reducing the risk of spillages.
