Comparison of two materials for veterinary vaccine bottle

Veterinary medicine vaccine bottles refer to packaging containers specially used to store various vaccines. The commonly used processing materials for this packaging include two categories: polymer materials and glass materials. These two materials have their own characteristics. What is the difference in performance?

First of all, the traditional Chinese medicine oral liquid bottle made of glass has good transparency, and the glass has good high temperature resistance and can be sterilized by high temperature and high pressure. However, this material also has certain defects, it is relatively easy to break, and the transportation cost is high. In addition, it also needs to go through tedious processes such as cleaning and drying before use, which invisibly increases the overall cost of the product.

The polymer materials are mainly polyethylene and polypropylene. They have good acid and alkali solvent corrosion resistance, light weight, and are not fragile, reducing transportation risks. On the other hand, with the improvement of technology, these two materials can also be subjected to high temperature and high pressure sterilization after modification. In terms of use, the bottle of polymer material can be used directly without complicated procedures such as cleaning and drying, which can reduce the labor cost of the enterprise.

The cost of using glass bottles is relatively high. The veterinary vaccine bottles made of polyethylene, polypropylene and other polymer materials are convenient to use, have low transportation costs, and can reduce labor costs. They have become the mainstream packaging of Chinese veterinary vaccines in the market.
