FAQ: Can Kennel Gear dishes be autoclaved?

Answer: Yes, both plastic bowls and stainless steel bowls and pails.

First, just to be sure that everyone understands what autoclaving is and what it is used for; it is a machine
that is used in medical and veterinary applications to decontaminate infectious materials. An example may
be the surgical instruments that the doctor uses for surgery; they need to be free from any germs so as to
not to spread any diseases or germs to the next patient. Autoclaves use high temperature steam under
pressure to kill contaminates and typically, the highest temperature used is 270 degrees Fahrenheit.

Cycle Times
Plastics transfer heat more slowly than glass or metal and may take longer to reach sterilizing temperatures
in the autoclave. Because of differences in heat transfer characteristics between plastics and inorganic ma-
terials, the contents of plastic containers may take longer to reach sterilization temperature (121°C). There-
fore, longer autoclaving cycles are necessary for liquids in large-volume plastic containers. Adequate cycles
can be determined only by experience with specific liquids and containers.

Chemical additives in steam will attack transparent plastics and cause a permanently glazed surface after
autoclaving.
Some transparent plastics may absorb minute amounts of water vapor and appear cloudy after autoclav-
ing. The clouding will disappear as the plastic dries. Clearing may be accelerated in a drying oven at 110°C.
Use polypropylene copolymer (PPCO) bottles instead of polysulfone with Tween in the autoclave.
Test tube racks filled with tubes must be autoclaved on a flat surface.

Specific Plastic Considerations
Polypropylene, polymethylpentene, polypropylene copolymer, TEFZEL ETFE, TEFLON FEP, and PFA may
be autoclaved repeatedly at 121°C, 15 psig. Cycles should be at least 15 minutes to ensure sterility.

Kennel-Gear plastic bowls are manufactured from polypropylene, which is a durable plastic resin com-
monly used to contain material during autoclaving. Polypropylene plastic pans with 6-12 inch sides are fa-
vored over polyethylene and polystyrene because polypropylene can withstand autoclaving without melting,
our plastic bowls are capable of withstanding temperatures up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Polypropylene containers and pans. Polypropylene is a plastic capable of withstanding autoclaving, but
resistant to heat transfer. Therefore, materials contained in a polypropylene pan will take longer to auto-
clave than the same materials in a stainless steel pan. To decrease the time required to sterilize material in
these containers
Any stainless steel and aluminum material can be autoclaved.
