TECHNICAL SPECS & GUIDE
1. Decoding USP Glass Types
Type I (Neutral Borosilicate): The most resistant glass. Essential for parenteral (injectable) drugs, vaccines, and blood products. It prevents "delamination" (glass flaking).
Type II (Treated Soda-Lime): Soda-lime glass with a sulfur-treated inner surface to improve hydrolytic resistance. Suitable for acidic/neutral aqueous infusion fluids.
Type III (Soda-Lime): Standard glass for oral liquids (syrups, tablets) and external use products where chemical interaction is less critical.
2. Lyophilization (Freeze-Drying) OptimizationFor lyophilized drugs, heat transfer is key. Our Lyo Vials feature a controlled bottom concavity and uniform wall thickness to ensure efficient thermal transfer during the freeze-drying cycle, reducing breakage and energy costs.
3. Neck Finishes: ISO Crimp StandardsWe adhere to ISO 8362-1 for injection vials.
13mm Crimp: Standard for small volumes (2ml - 5ml).
20mm Crimp: Standard for larger volumes (10ml - 100ml).
We guarantee the "Blowback" geometry to ensure the rubber stopper stays seated during the lyophilization process before capping.
