Overview
Borosilicate ampoules are hermetic glass containers manufactured from high-purity borosilicate glass (Type I). They feature a low coefficient of thermal expansion and exceptional chemical inertness, ensuring stability against hydrolytic attack during sterilization processes.
Application
- Pharmaceutical industry: Parenteral solutions and lyophilized powders.
- Clinical diagnostics: Reagent storage for automated analyzers.
- Chemical synthesis: High-temperature reaction vessels in glove boxes.
- Laboratory equipment: Compatibility with flame sealing machines and autoclaves.
Precautions
- Storage: Maintain ambient temperature between 15°C and 25°C; relative humidity under 60%.
- Handling: Avoid mechanical shock; inspect for micro-cracks prior to use.
- Pressure: Do not exceed standard atmospheric pressure differentials unless rated for vacuum applications.
