FAQs

What are the benefits of using Type I borosilicate glass for these vials?

Type I borosilicate glass is renowned for its excellent chemical resistance and thermal stability, making it ideal for storing volatile organic compounds. It prevents interaction with the contents, ensuring the purity and integrity of samples. Additionally, its transparency allows for easy visual inspection, which is crucial for quality control and monitoring.

How does the custody-sealed packaging enhance sample integrity?

Custody-sealed packaging ensures that the vials remain uncontaminated from the point of manufacture to their final use. This feature provides a secure chain of custody, which is essential for maintaining sample integrity and traceability in analytical processes. It also helps in preventing unauthorized access or tampering with the contents.

Can these vials be used for long-term storage of volatile compounds?

Yes, the TraceClean 20 mL Vials are specifically designed for storing volatile organic compounds. The secure septa cap with a fluoropolymer resin/silicone liner provides an airtight seal, which is crucial for preventing evaporation and maintaining the integrity of volatile samples over extended periods.

What cleaning procedures are followed to ensure the vials' suitability for sensitive analyses?

These vials are prepared in a solvent-free facility and follow EPA cleaning procedures. This meticulous preparation process minimizes the risk of volatile contamination, ensuring that the vials meet the high standards required for sensitive analytical applications, such as environmental testing and pharmaceutical research.

Are there any specific storage conditions required for these vials?

While the vials are designed to protect their contents effectively, it is recommended to store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Proper storage conditions will help maintain the integrity of both the vials and their contents, ensuring reliable performance in analytical applications.
