A method for producing a vial with low alkali elution by removing a deteriorated region caused by processing on an internal surface of a vial is disclosed. The method involves forming vials from borosilicate glass tubes including a first step of forming a borosilicate glass tube into a cup-shaped body by formation of a bottom of a vial, and a second step of forming the cup-shaped body into the vial by formation of a mouth of the cup-shaped body.

A vial for packing a substance to be smoked from the vial and a method of manufacturing the vial, the method of manufacturing including providing a glass vial, the glass vial having a first end portion and a second end portion connected by a tubular portion having a hollow interior, the first end portion being open and the second end portion being closed; applying heat to a section of the tubular portion to heat the section of the tubular portion; applying a pressure around the heated section of the tubular portion to collapse the section of the tubular portion into the hollow interior of the tubular portion; pressing the first end portion and the second end portion together until an exterior surface of the tubular portion surrounding the collapsed section is level with a remaining exterior surface of the tubular portion; and forming an opening in the second end portion.

The present application relates to an assembly (1) for packaging a cosmetic product, comprising a glass bottle (2) extending between a bottom and a neck (4), and a wiping member (7), wherein the bottle (2) is made of drawn glass and wherein the neck (4) has an internal annular bulge (42) cooperating with a groove (72) in the wiping member (7) in order to ensure that the wiping member (7) is fastened inside the neck (4) by snap-fastening.

A method for manufacturing an all-glass solar heat collecting tube without a tail pipe. The bottom of one end of an inner glass tube plated by a selective absorbing coating layer is rounded, the other end is connected to a first glass outer tube. The bottom of one end of a second glass outer tube is rounded and the other end is flared. The connected inner glass tube/first glass outer tube is inserted into the second glass outer tube. A gap is formed between the first glass outer tube and the second glass outer tube to serve as an air exhausting channel. The first glass outer tube is inserted into the flared opening of the second glass outer tube. The contact point between the first glass outer tube and the second glass outer tube is heated to frit seal and butt joint.

Forming tool for glass forming in particular for forming bottle necks, with an axial central mounting section, provided with a flange, with forming surfaces on the flange where the forming surfaces are at an angle with a surface perpendicular to the axial axis of the mounting section, wherein the angle (X) is between 5 and 15 degrees.

A method for the manufacture of a glass tube with closed ends includes: providing a glass tube with open ends including a first open end and a second open end; closing the first open end of the glass tube while introducing a gas into the glass tube through the second open end; opening a ventilation hole in a wall of the glass tube near one of the open ends; and closing the second open end.

A method for producing a vial with low alkali elution by removing a deteriorated region caused by processing on an internal surface of a vial is disclosed. The method is for forming vials from borosilicate glass tubes, which includes a first step of forming a mouth of the vial; a second step of forming the borosilicate glass tube into a cup-shaped body to form a bottom of a vial; and a third step of fire-blasting an internal surface of the cup-shaped body with a flame.
