Yes, the blue boxed Bemis roll that I received was Bemis.
This prout isn't an adhesive in the traditional sense, so I wouldn't recommend it for that purpose. Because it bonds to itself rather than the surface you're applying it to, a full wrap or two around whatever you're securing is required.
Yes. You can unroll the product and make two spindles out of it.
Selected User Reviews For Parafilm - HS234526B M Roll, 125' Length x 4" Width
I'm a biochemist with a Ph. D. I've been out of the lab for about five years (I now work at a patent law firm, so I'm a desk jockey), but I've developed a few chemical-related hobbies (e. g. , metal patinas, copper etching, and so on). I occasionally need to do things like saturate the atmosphere of a jar with ammonia vapors and leave it for several days. I don't want my home to smell like ammonia, after all! I was thinking to myself, "Well, in the lab, I would have used Parafilm to add an extra layer of protection. " Then it occurred to me that Parafilm might be available on Amazon. If you're unfamiliar with this product, it's a stretchy film with no adhesive that sticks to itself, which is why backing paper is included. It's simple to cut into any width of strip you want (just use regular scissors and leave the parafilm backing on). It has a translucent appearance. It will also stretch to fit the contours of your container, and once applied, it will not come loose from glass, metal, plastic, or anything else until you want to remove it. (You must go all the way around the container in order for the parafilm to return to its original position and touch itself. ) I hope that was clear. For a better/more secure seal, wrap around a couple of times. )br>br>Even when not in use, this lasts a long time; I used to keep the same roll next to my lab bench for several years and it never became brittle. It is somewhat heat-resistant. br>br> tenacious I was doing some experiments in which I heated quartz test tubes in an aluminum block to around 260 degrees Celsius, leaving the tubes' tops exposed. To seal in gases from gas-filled tubes, I put rubber stoppers in them and wrapped parafilm around the outside of the stoppers (they were too big to bend down over the tube's outside) I covered the tops of the tubes with filled balloons. Despite the fact that I was generating a lot of nasty nitrogen-based odors in the lab, there was never a smell. In my experiments, I used molecules that contained molecules. In any case, my point is that this product performs admirably even at moderately high temperatures. br>br>We'd also use this if we were making polyacrylamide gels with urea. Because this takes a long time, we mixed our reagents in a plastic centrifuge tube, sealed it, wrapped it in parafilm, and set it on a rocker to dissolve. No leaks! There were a slew of other applications in the lab as well. Now I use it at home to keep vapors contained in my mason jars and out of my garage (or kitchen, depending on the situation). br>br>Anyway, I'm always thinking of things I'd like to use this for at home, and my previous experience has taught me that it's a very dependable product, so I'm glad I can get it here (and it's the same quality I've come to expect).
Simply look it up on YouTube if you don't know how to use it. Both in the lab and in the kitchen, this stuff is fantastic at keeping things airtight. It only takes a little to make a big difference. Just be aware that solvents (e. g. , alcohol) can dissolve it. benzene). br>br>Here are a few examples of how I've put it to good use: br>• Preventing spills by sealing a box of cream of wheat. br>• Preventing spills by sealing opened wine bottles for the next day or two. )br>On a side note, I've wrapped a wine bottle in parafilm, turned it over, and shaken it up and down to see if it would leak, and it hasn't! However, if you stretch the film too thinly, it will break (as I have experienced firsthand). • As a temporary means of holding two (or more) things together without the stickiness of tape or glue. br>• As a last-minute condom (JUST KIDDING, DON'T TRY THIS).
I purchased this to use as a wrap for some Petri dishes that I was going to use for an experiment. I could have gotten away with using regular Saran Wrap, but after hearing so many good things about this product, we decided to check it out. So I took a chance and bought something on the spur of the moment. Wow, this stuff is incredible. It's the clingy sticky film you didn't know you needed, and it's made a significant difference in my life. Wrapping Petri dishes is now one of my favorite things to do. The non- The delicate dispenser was carefully packaged and arrived sooner than expected. There was also a surprise package of gummy bears, which my daughter was overjoyed to find when she asked what was in the box I was opening. I'd buy it again if it weren't for the fact that I already have what feels like an endless supply. A life full of the best cling-ons possible Money can't buy you the best film wrapping experiences. Customer is extremely pleased.
It's great for sealing oddly shaped containers and the like. It now seals the plastic medication vials that my wife uses for her eyes when we travel very well. She tears a small strip of parafilm and uses it to close the vial's neck. Because we don't do a lot of traveling, the 125-foot length ensures that we'll have enough for more than a lifetime. I'll have to make a decision about who I'll hand it over to.
It's very old and dry, and the quality isn't as good as the last one I bought. Before opening the package, it is temporarily taped shut with stationary tape. It is an item that has been used or that has been returned. I was dissatisfied and irritated by Amazon's sale of such a low-quality product, which I would not recommend.
If you're traveling with liquids and want to avoid spills or leaks, this tape is the way to go. This tape doesn't have any of that. Even if you intend to fly, it seals well. The seal won't be broken by the pressure. It won't crack or dry out. It's still there after all these years. When it's time to take it off, it's simple and quick to do so. If necessary, it can be reused. This type of tape should be used to seal all containers.
It's a very dry and old parafilm, which is unsurprising. When I cut it, it barely stays together. When I wrap something in it, it doesn't stick to itself. I'm dissatisfied with the product's poor quality and the suppliers' attempt to pass it off as professional-grade parafilm.
