A 1000mL Plastic Wash Bottle supplied by IBEX SCIENCES is a squeeze container used in laboratories to rinse glassware and dispense controlled streams of liquids. This large 1-liter capacity size is ideal for high-volume lab work, reducing the need for constant refills during long experiments. [1]
Key Specifications & Features
- Material: Made from high-quality Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) or similar flexible plastic. It is highly flexible for easy squeezing and bounces back to its original shape immediately. [1, 2]
- Capacity: 1000mL (1 Liter), which is the largest standard size available for routine lab bench tasks. [1]
- Nozzle Design: Features a long, bent elbow nozzle built into a leak-proof screw cap. This allows you to aim the liquid stream precisely into narrow-necked flasks or tubes. [1, 2]
- Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to standard laboratory liquids, including distilled water, alcohols (like ethanol or isopropyl), and mild acids or bases. [1, 2]
What is it Used For?
- Glassware Cleaning: Flushing out traces of soap, chemicals, or debris from beakers, test tubes, and volumetric flasks.
- Solution Dispensing: Precisely topping up liquids to the fill line in graduated cylinders or volumetric flasks.
- Alternative Uses: Widely utilized in commercial settings outside the lab, such as tattoo parlor cleaning stations, succulent gardening, and detailed craft work. [1]
Best Safety Practices for Squeeze Bottles
- Label Properly: Always use a permanent marker or laboratory label to state exactly what chemical is inside the bottle. Never leave a wash bottle unlabeled.
- Do Not Store Strong Solvents: Avoid storing volatile solvents (like acetone) in standard wash bottles long-term, as they can cause the plastic to warp or leak under gas pressure.
- Avoid Contamination: Do not let the tip of the nozzle touch unclean glass or surfaces while rinsing, as this can draw contamination back up into your clean water supply.
