Glass bottle is an integral part of medicine

As a silicate inorganic material, glass has relatively stable performance, smooth and transparent, and is particularly suitable for packaging, storage and quality preservation of medicines. At the same time, the price of glass is relatively cheap compared to other materials. In recent years, with the rapid development of the pharmaceutical industry, my country’s cosmetic glass industry and products have been developed and improved by leaps and bounds, and have become the main packaging materials in the field of pharmaceutical packaging. Dry machines, biological products, blood products, oral liquids, health products, etc., glass bottles are widely used in various pharmaceutical packaging.


my country’s glass packaging technology textbooks divide various types of glass into eleven categories. Cosmetic glass bottles belong to the category of bottle glass according to their manufacturing process engineering, but belong to the category of instrument glass according to their performance and use. Since medicines are special commodities, the chemical composition, performance and quality requirements of various cosmetic glass products as their packaging containers are better than ordinary glass bottles and jars. For a long time, the packaging of injections in my country has been dominated by low borosilicate glass containers. However, filling the acidic and alkaline liquids in low borosilicate glass containers with low water resistance levels is likely to cause visible foreign objects such as peeling, white spots, etc. of the medicine during the validity period. As an inseparable part of pharmaceuticals, pharmaceutical packaging materials are closely related to the development of the pharmaceutical industry.


Because of the weight and fragility of cosmetic glass bottles, a wide range of cosmetic glass bottles have been resisted by the market. However, in the past few years, with the AA phenol incident of plastic baby bottles and plastic plasticizer incidents, cosmetic glass bottles have returned to the market position. Cosmetic glass bottles have the following competitive advantages: they have good chemical stability and will not be affected by temperature. The increase of toxic substances will contaminate the contents of the bottle; the hardness of the glass bottle is high and will not be deformed by squeezing, otherwise the contents will not be squeezed; using glass bottles for medicines, consumers are more assured Bottles have a history of thousands of years, and their safety has been widely recognized. The products are safer and easy to sterilize; the shape can be changed and the decoration is easy, and the products are high-end, which promotes sales.
