Description
Carboy, PP, wide neck, 20 l is a laboratory carboy designed for bulk liquid handling and intermediate storage in research, quality-control, and production environments. Manufactured from polypropylene (PP), the vessel combines chemical resistance suitable for many aqueous media with a robust wide-neck opening that simplifies filling, emptying, and cleaning. The generous 20 l capacity supports larger batch volumes while remaining practical for bench-side or under-bench placement in the lab. Supplied as a single unit with an approximate weight of 2,415 kg, this carboy from manufacturer Nalgene fits established workflows for media preparation, buffer stock, process intermediates, and general reagent holding. Its wide neck facilitates the use of larger funnels, dip tubes, or sampling tools and reduces the risk of spillage during transfer. Typical applications include temporary storage of process liquids, transport within controlled laboratory areas, and organisation of bulk solutions prior to aliquoting. The polypropylene construction supports repeated use under standard laboratory conditions when handled according to good laboratory practice. This carboy belongs to the broader range of laboratory containers, bottles, and canisters used for secure liquid management.
This article is part of Canisters & jerrycans, in Bottles & containers.

Questions about Carboy, PP, wide neck, 20 l, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Carboy, PP, wide neck, 20 l, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Nalgene for laboratory use. It sits in Canisters & jerrycans, inside Bottles & containers, in Labware.
A canister or jerrycan holds litres, not millilitres, and it is shaped to be carried and to pour. The material has to survive the liquid for the whole time the can sits in the store.
A laboratory bottle is a closed container with a stated volume and a neck that takes a cap, a stopper or a dispenser. Borosilicate glass is the choice when the liquid is a solvent, or when the bottle will be heated or autoclaved. Polyethylene and polypropylene are the choice when the bottle must not shatter, or when hydrofluoric acid would attack glass. A narrow mouth pours. A wide mouth is for powders and for reaching the bottom. Laboratory ware of this kind is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Traceable volume sits with the BIPM and NIST Physical Measurement.
