RReagent bottle Very essential glassware of a typical laboratory setup. Reagent bottles are used to store liquids like organic solvents, acids and another chemical especially for long term. They are kept in cabins and shelves or racks (like fire safety cabins) undisturbed. Many times these bottles are not transparent but rather have amber or brown or red tint. This is to protect light sensitive chemicals from visible, infrared or ultraviolet radiations. Resistant to corrosion however strong alkalis shouldn’t be stored as it may corrode the lid/cap. Characteristics • Reagent bottles are made of ground glass, borosilicate plastic etc. • Bottles have a robust plug/top. • Widely available in 100 mL to 2 liters of volume.
