Description
Nalgene™ closed-dome polypropylene tanks provide large-volume containment for storage, mixing and dispensing of laboratory reagents. This model has a nominal volume of 380 l (100 gal; metric capacity 378,5 L) and is manufactured from polypropylene (PP) for chemical resistance in everyday lab and process use. Approximate external dimensions are 28,5 in outer diameter and 52 in height, supporting floor-standing installation where bulk holding is required. The closed-dome design reduces open-surface exposure during holding and transfer. According to the manufacturer data, the tanks comply with FDA Regulation 177.1520 and USP Class VI. Each unit is packed singly and comes from manufacturer Thermo Scientific within the Nalgene laboratory plastics range. Gross weight is 30,845 kg. The format suits reagent staging, intermediate bulk storage and controlled dispensing in research, quality-control and pilot environments that need robust polypropylene vessels with a closed dome profile.

Questions about Nalgene™ Closed-Dome Polypropylene Tanks
What is this article?
Nalgene™ Closed-Dome Polypropylene Tanks is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Thermo Scientific - Laboratory Plastics 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.
