Homeopathic Glass Vial

Product Details:

A glass vial is a small, cylindrical container made of glass that is used to store and transport liquids, powders, or other substances. These vials come in various sizes, shapes, and types, catering to diverse applications across industries such as pharmaceuticals, healthcare, laboratories, cosmetics, and more.

Here are some key characteristics and considerations related to glass vials:

1. Material: Glass vials are commonly made from either soda-lime glass or borosilicate glass. Soda-lime glass is a more economical option, while borosilicate glass offers enhanced resistance to thermal stress and chemical interactions.

2. Sizes and Shapes: Glass vials are available in a range of sizes, typically measured in milliliters (ml) or cubic centimeters (cc). They can have different shapes, including cylindrical, tubular, or even with specialty shapes for specific purposes.

3. Transparency: The transparency of glass allows for easy visual inspection of the contents without the need to open the vial. This is particularly important in applications where the quality and integrity of the stored substance need to be verified.

4. Amber or Clear: Glass vials can be either clear or amber in color. Clear glass allows for complete visibility of the contents, while amber glass provides protection against light and ultraviolet (UV) radiation, making it suitable for light-sensitive substances.

5. Sealing Mechanisms: Glass vials are typically sealed with closures such as screw caps, crimp caps, rubber stoppers, or other types of lids. The choice of closure depends on the specific requirements of the stored substance and the application.

6. Chemical Compatibility: Glass is generally chemically inert, but it's important to consider the compatibility of the glass vial with the substance it will contain. Some specialized applications may require the use of borosilicate glass for its higher resistance to chemical interactions.

7. Applications: Glass vials are widely used for the storage and transportation of pharmaceuticals, vaccines, laboratory reagents, chemicals, perfumes, essential oils, and more. They are also commonly used in diagnostic and analytical procedures.

8. Sterilization: Glass vials can be autoclaved or heat-sterilized, making them suitable for applications where sterility is crucial, such as in pharmaceutical and clinical settings.

9. Customization: Manufacturers offer a variety of standard glass vial sizes and types, but customization is also possible to meet specific requirements regarding volume, shape, and other parameters.

Glass vials are preferred in many applications due to their transparency, chemical resistance, and suitability for a wide range of substances. The choice between clear and amber glass, as well as the specific type of glass used, depends on the nature of the contents and the intended use of the vial.

Product Details:

A lip neck glass vial, also known as a crimp neck or plain neck glass vial, is a type of container made from glass. It has a narrow opening, or “neck”, which is designed to fit a specific type of closure, such as a crimp cap or rubber stopper12.

These vials are typically made from soda-lime glass or borosilicate glass1, and they come in various sizes. For example, the Kinesis® Crimp Neck Glass Vials come in 13 and 20 mm sizes3.

The primary characteristic of these vials is their transparency, which allows users to easily see the contents of the vial without the need to open or manipulate it1. This feature is advantageous for visual inspection, quality control, and monitoring liquid levels1.

These vials find applications in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, healthcare, cosmetics, and laboratories1. They are commonly used for the storage, transportation, and dispensing of liquids, powders, or other substances1.
