Glass bottle containers can be divided into many types according to their different classification standards. The following is a summary based on different classification standards:
1. Classification by bottle mouth size
Small mouth bottle: glass bottle with an inner diameter of less than 20mm, mostly used to package liquid materials, such as soda, various alcoholic beverages, etc. This type of bottle is suitable for sealing and storing liquids that need to be stored for a long time due to its smaller bottle mouth.
Wide mouth bottle: glass bottle with an inner diameter of 20~30mm, with a thicker and shorter shape, such as a milk bottle. This type of bottle is easy to pour and pour out the contents, and is suitable for packaging liquids or semi-solid products that require a larger opening.
Wide mouth bottle: the inner diameter of the bottle mouth is greater than 30mm, its neck and shoulder are shorter, the bottle shoulder is flatter, and it is mostly can-shaped or cup-shaped. Due to the large bottle mouth, it is easier to load and unload, and is mostly used to package canned foods and viscous materials, such as honey bottles, pickle bottles, etc.
2. Classification by bottle geometry
Round bottle: The cross-section of the bottle body is round, which is the most widely used bottle type, with high strength and suitable for various packaging needs.
Square bottle: The cross section of the bottle is square. This type of bottle is weaker than that of a round bottle and is more difficult to manufacture, so it is less used. However, in certain specific occasions, such as cosmetics or pharmaceutical packaging, square bottles also have their unique application value.
Curved bottle: Although the cross section is round, it is curved in the height direction, with two types of concave and convex, such as vase type and gourd type. This type of bottle is novel in form and very popular with users. It is often used for gift packaging or display of special products.
Oval bottle: The cross section is oval. Although the capacity is small, the shape is unique and users also like it. This type of bottle has a certain visual appeal and is suitable for packaging high-end products or special drinks.
3. Classification by use
Bottles for wine: The output of wine is extremely large, and almost all of it is packaged in glass bottles, mainly round bottles. This type of bottle focuses on sealing and aesthetics to meet the packaging needs of different types of wine.
Daily packaging glass bottles: Usually used to package various daily small commodities, such as cosmetics, ink, glue, etc. Due to the variety of commodities it packages, its bottle shape and seal are also diverse.
Canned food bottles: There are many types of canned food and the output is large, so they are self-contained. This type of bottle mostly adopts a wide-mouth design, which is convenient for loading and unloading, and the capacity is generally 150ML~1000ML.
Medical bottles: Glass bottles used to package medicines, including brown screw-mouth small-mouth bottles (capacity of 10200mL), infusion bottles (capacity of 1001000mL) and completely sealed ampoules. This type of bottle has high requirements for sealing and corrosion resistance to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the medicine.
Chemical reagent bottles: used to package various chemical reagents, the capacity is generally 250~1200mL, and the bottle mouth is mostly screw or ground. This type of bottle focuses on corrosion resistance and sealing to meet the packaging needs of various chemical reagents.
In summary, glass bottle containers can be divided into many types according to their different classification standards. In practical applications, the appropriate type of glass bottle can be selected according to specific product characteristics and packaging requirements.
