Industries that Commonly Use It
- Chemical Industry- Medical Device/ Prosthetics (for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical packaging)- Food & Beverage Company or Distributor- Packaging Services or Contractor- Distributers & Resellers
Special and Unique Features
- **Child-Resistant Closure (CRC) Cap**: Requires two distinct actions (e.g., push-and-turn) to open, significantly reducing the risk of accidental ingestion by children, a regulatory requirement for hazardous products and medications.- **F217 Foam Liner**: A 3-ply co-extruded foam liner providing excellent general-purpose sealing, good chemical resistance, low moisture transmission rate, and protection from odor transmission without impacting product taste.- **HDPE Material**: Offers superior durability, impact resistance, and chemical resistance to a wide range of substances, making it suitable for sensitive or strong formulations.- **Opaque White Color**: Protects light-sensitive contents from UV degradation and provides a clean canvas for branding and labeling.- **Cosmo Round Shape**: A tall, slender design with rounded shoulders, offering a classic aesthetic that is easy to label or screen print.
Key Properties
- **Material**: High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) bottle, Polypropylene (PP) cap, F217 foam liner.- **Capacity**: 2 oz (approximately 60ml).- **Neck Finish**: 20/410, a standard size for compatibility with various closures.- **Durability**: High impact resistance and sturdiness, resisting deformation during transport and storage.- **Chemical Resistance**: Excellent resistance to many acids, bases, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, and aliphatic hydrocarbons, making it suitable for harsh chemicals.- **Moisture Barrier**: Outstanding gas and moisture barrier properties, helping maintain product quality and limiting oxygen/bacteria penetration.- **Temperature Resistance**: HDPE works well in below freezing temperatures; heat compatibility varies, with distortion occurring between 220° to 250°F.- **Safety**: FDA-approved for food-grade safety, BPA-free, and non-leaching.- **Recyclability**: HDPE is 100% recyclable.
Surface Compatibility
- **Bottle (HDPE)**: Compatible with a wide range of liquids including most acids, bases, alcohols, aldehydes, esters, and aliphatic hydrocarbons.- **Liner (F217 Foam)**: Good general-purpose liner, compatible with acids, alkalis, solvents, alcohols, oils, household cosmetics, and aqueous products.- **Not Recommended For**: Strong oxidizing acids, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and some essential oils/fragrance oils at high concentrations (for PET, but generally good for HDPE).
Known backups / known substitutes
- **PET Cosmo Round Bottles**: Offer transparency and a similar aesthetic, but generally have lower heat resistance and limited gas barrier properties.- **Glass Bottles**: Provide inertness and excellent barrier properties, often used for pharmaceuticals, especially amber glass for UV protection. Can be more fragile and heavier.- **LDPE Bottles**: More flexible than HDPE, suitable for squeeze applications, but generally less rigid and may have different chemical resistance profiles.- **Other Plastic Bottle Shapes**: Such as Boston Rounds or Cylinder bottles, depending on aesthetic and functional requirements.- **Different Cap Liners**: Pulp and Poly, Pressure Sensitive, Plastisol, or Induction Seal liners, depending on specific sealing, chemical resistance, and tamper-evident needs.
Comparison Note
- This 2 oz. White HDPE Cosmo Single Bottle with a 20/410 White Ribbed CRC Cap and F217 Liner is a robust and safe packaging solution, particularly well-suited for products requiring child protection and good chemical compatibility. Its HDPE construction provides superior durability, impact resistance, and an opaque barrier against light, distinguishing it from transparent PET alternatives which are often chosen for visual appeal but may lack the same chemical or heat resistance. The integrated CRC cap and F217 liner offer a critical safety feature and reliable sealing, making it a preferred choice for regulated products like pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and hazardous household or industrial chemicals, where safety and product integrity are paramount over transparency.
