Features:- The opaque amber color can reduce UV light transmission and protect photosensitive liquids
- Meet the requirements of USP 23 on light transmission
- Excellent chemical resistance to most acids, alkalis and alcohols, making these bottles widely used in environments where light exposure needs to be limited
- 4 and 8L sizes have larger built-in shoulder rings , used for identification labels
- Unlined caps provide excellent leak-proof† protection without the use of linings that can cause wrinkles, cause leakage or contaminate reagents
- Autoclavable/leak-proof when used with Nalgene caps †
- Bottles and cartons are readily recycled in most communities
- Made from non-toxic materials

Note:
Please completely unscrew the threads or remove the cap before autoclaving. Nalgene LDPE, HDPE, PP and PMP containers can be used for long-term storage, but direct exposure to UV light should be avoided.
Recycling Information:
Reusable Nalgene polypropylene (PP) and polypropylene copolymer (PPCO) bottles under typical laboratory conditions Durable. However, like all durable products, they are eventually discontinued and replaced. The bottles and their packaging are recycled in many communities. Please recycle the cartons and LDPE bags in which Nalgene bottles are packaged. When the product reaches the end of its service life, if the community provides recycling services, please wash the Nalgene PP and PPCO bottles and let the community recycle them.
† The term "leak-proof" applies to Thermo Scientific Nalgene products that meet the following criteria: a) For bottles/flasks/ with cap dimensions less than 100 mm For funnel sealing systems, when filled with water, the water inside will not escape when inverted for 2 minutes under a gas pressure of 2 psig; b) For bottle/funnel/flask sealing systems with cap sizes greater than 100 mm, when filled with water Afterwards, turn it upside down for 15 minutes so that the water inside will not overflow. Note: If other liquids are used for the above test, different results may be obtained. To ensure safe use, customers are advised to test Thermo Scientific Nalgene bottles and closures under planned application conditions. Thermo Scientific Nalgene products are leak-proof when used with Nalgene sealing caps at room temperature and pressure.
