Plastic Dropper

A plastic dropper is a small instrument used to dispense liquids in small, controlled amounts. They are widely used in various fields due to their simplicity, low cost, and disposability.

Material:

• Plastic: Commonly made from polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), or polystyrene (PS). The specific plastic used dictates chemical compatibility and flexibility. Some are made from more chemically resistant plastics like fluoropolymers (e.g., PTFE) for specialized applications.

Purpose:

• Precise Liquid Dispensing: Designed for accurate transfer of small volumes of liquids.
• Sample Handling: Used in laboratories, healthcare, and cosmetic applications for handling and measuring liquids.
• Adding Liquids: Ideal for adding small amounts of substances to mixtures or solutions.

Function:

• Suction & Dispensing: Operates by squeezing a flexible bulb or body to create a vacuum, drawing liquid into the dropper tip. Releasing the pressure forces the liquid out.
• Controlled Flow: The size of the dropper tip and the bulb's elasticity control the flow rate and volume of liquid dispensed.
• Graduated Markings: Some droppers feature graduated markings (typically in milliliters or drops) for approximate volume measurement.

Usage Scenarios:

• Laboratories: Chemistry, biology, and medical labs for reagent handling, titrations, and sample preparation.
• Healthcare: Administering eye drops, ear drops, or nasal solutions. Also used for sample collection.
• Cosmetics & Beauty: Dispensing essential oils, serums, or other liquid cosmetic products.
• DIY & Crafts: Mixing paints, inks, or adhesives in small quantities.
• Food Industry: Adding flavorings or colorings to food products.

Common Types:

• Graduated Droppers: Feature markings for approximate volume measurement. Available in various volume capacities (e.g., 1ml, 3ml, 5ml).
• Pasteur Pipettes: A type of glass or plastic dropper, often tapered at the tip, primarily used for transferring small volumes of liquids aseptically. While often referred to as "droppers", they function similarly but are distinct in design and application.
• Transfer Pipettes: Long, slender droppers used for transferring liquids between containers. Often used with a pipette pump.
• Bulb Droppers: Feature a rubber or plastic bulb for suction and dispensing.
• Dropper Bottles: Bottles specifically designed with a dropper integrated into the cap.
• Calibrated Droppers: More precise droppers with accurate volume markings, often used in quantitative analysis.
