Glass bottles are classified by the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) according to chemical durability.
Types of glass include:
Type I - Borosilicate Glass (also known as Pyrex)
Type II - Treated Soda-Lime Glass
Type III - Soda-Lime Glass or Soda-Lime-Silica Glass
Type III is the most common type of glass bottles.
Type I is the most durable glass.
All of the glass bottles offered by eBottles.com are manufactured from Type III Soda-Lime glass.
Type III - Soda-Lime Glass
Type III soda-lime glass is a silica glass containing alkali metal oxides. Soda-lime glass exhibits moderate chemical resistance and moderate hydrolytic (water) resistance. Soda-lime glass is inexpensive, chemically stable, and ideal for recycling as the glass can be re-melted and re-formed multiple times.
Type III glass is commonly used for beverages, foods and pharmaceutical preparations.
Type III glass is not suitable for autoclaved products because the autoclaving process will accelerate the glass corrosion reaction. Dry heat sterilization processes are typically not a problem for Type III containers.
Amber glass is created by the addition of iron oxide. Amber glass is formulated to absorb light in the ultra violet region of the electromagnetic spectrum and is used to package light sensitive products.
