Frequently Asked Questions
Why does this wash bottle have a vented cap?
The vented closure relieves internal pressure as the LDPE body relaxes, reducing post-squeeze drip and improving stream control when dispensing ethanol.
What does the multilingual GHS labeling include?
Each bottle is preprinted with GHS-compliant hazard identification for ethanol in multiple languages, supporting standardized chemical labeling at the bench.
Is this bottle suitable for acetonitrile or chlorinated solvents?
It is optimized for ethanol and other alcohols. Acetonitrile is limited to short contact, and aromatic or chlorinated solvents are not recommended with LDPE.
What is the difference between the two SKUs?
WGW541VTML-GHS-1 is a single 500mL bottle; WGW541VTML-GHS is a 4-pack of the same bottle, offering a lower per-unit cost.
