The Polypropylene 12 x 32 mm Screw Neck Vial, equipped with a Cap and Preslit PTFE/Silicone Septum, offers an optimal solution for laboratories seeking precision and reliability in sample handling. With a practical volume of 300 µL and a pack of 100 units, these vials are designed to support a wide range of analytical testing applications, ensuring efficiency and high throughput for extensive testing protocols.
Constructed from high-quality polypropylene, these vials provide exceptional chemical resistance, making them suitable for storing a variety of samples, particularly those that may react with glass. This material choice not only enhances the durability of the vials but also ensures the safety and integrity of the samples stored within, supporting the accuracy of subsequent analyses.
The screw neck design of the vial is engineered to create a tight seal, effectively minimizing the risk of sample evaporation and contamination. This feature is crucial for maintaining the integrity of volatile organic compounds and other sensitive materials that demand stringent containment. The secure sealing system ensures that each vial remains airtight and protected from external environmental factors, preserving the original condition of the sample for accurate testing and analysis.
Each vial is capped with a preslit PTFE/Silicone septum, a key component that enhances the functionality and usability of the vials. The preslit design of the septum simplifies the process of needle penetration during sample extraction or injection, significantly reducing the likelihood of septum coring and the associated risk of sample contamination. The combination of PTFE and silicone provides an ideal balance between chemical inertness and mechanical durability. PTFE offers excellent resistance to chemicals, ensuring that the septum does not interact with the sample, while silicone ensures the septum is flexible and reseals effectively after puncture.
These vials are designed to be compatible with most autosamplers, accommodating a broad spectrum of laboratory applications, from environmental testing and pharmaceutical research to chemical analysis and beyond. The standardized dimensions (12 x 32 mm) of the vials ensure that they fit seamlessly into various autosampler racks and holders, promoting ease of use and integration into existing laboratory setups.
Provided in a pack of 100, these polypropylene vials facilitate continuous laboratory operations by reducing the need for frequent reordering. This not only optimizes laboratory efficiency but also supports bulk handling procedures in high-throughput environments. Whether used for routine testing or more specialized analytical tasks, these vials provide a reliable and consistent solution for laboratories prioritizing accuracy, efficiency, and sample security.
Overall, the Polypropylene 12 x 32 mm Screw Neck Vial with Cap and Preslit PTFE/Silicone Septum is a high-quality, versatile tool that meets the rigorous demands of modern analytical practices. It offers laboratories a dependable and practical option for managing and preserving various types of samples, ensuring that each analysis is conducted with the highest level of precision and reliability.

What Is Polypropylene?
Polypropylene is a type of plastic that is a rigid material- it may be translucent or pigmented. The material has many similarities to polyethylene, but is preferable for chromatography as it is more resistant to heat. Its chemical resistance also means it is resistant to bases, alcohols, and acids with a low risk of leaching. It can also be cleaned and sterilized easily. The melting point of polypropylene is high compared to other thermoplastics, and will soften around 155 C. It can also maintain strength in extremely cold temperatures.
