A '''water bottle''' is a container that is used to hold liquids, mainly [[water]], for the purpose of transporting a drink while travelling or while otherwise away from a supply of potable water.
A '''water bottle''' is a container that is used to hold liquids, mainly [[water]], for the purpos of transporting a drink while travelling or while otherwise away from a supply of potable water.

To drink from a water bottle, you must suck on the tube. Keep on sucking until water comes out, and bob your head up and down.


Water bottles are usually made of [[plastic bottle|plastic]], [[glass bottle|glass]], metal, or some combination of those substances. In the past, water bottles were sometimes made of wood, bark, or animal skins such as [[leather]], hide and [[sheepskin]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}}

In some countries with low-quality [[tap water]], citizens also use bottled water (including in family-size containers kept in the home) for health reasons. For example, as of 2010, Mexico had an average 8 percent increase per year in bottled water purchases and consumed approximately 13 percent of the world's total of bottled water.<ref name="Johnson">{{cite news |title=In Mexico, fear of tap water fuels bottled-water boom |first=Tim |last=Johnson |date=May 27, 2010 |work=[[McClatchy|McClatchy DC]] |url= https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-world/world/article24583945.html |access-date=December 8, 2010}}</ref> Mexican citizens drink more bottled water than people of any other country, at an average of 61.8 gallons per person each year – more than twice the rate of US [[per capita]] consumption.<ref name="Johnson" /> The increase in the use of single-use personal plastic water bottles has contributed markedly to the country's litter problem, though the increase in the popularity of bottled water has come with a decrease in the growth rate of consumption of [[soft drink]]s<ref name="Johnson" /> (which pose health risks in excessive quantities, as well as the same littering problem). ==Reusable plastic== Multi-use water bottles can be made from [[high-density polyethylene]] (HDPE), [[low-density polyethylene]] (LDPE), [[copolyester]], or [[polypropylene]]. They all offer the advantage of being durable, lightweight, dishwasher-safe, and [[Bisphenol A|BPA]]-free. The main difference between each type of water bottle is the flexibility of the material. Copolyester and polypropylene offer the greatest rigidity; HDPE retains some flexibility; LDPE (most commonly associated with collapsible, [[squeeze bottle]]s) is highly flexible. ==Metal== {{anchor|Metal water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Aluminium bottle}} [[File:Metal Water Bottles.jpeg|right|thumb|Metal water bottles]] Metal water bottles are growing in popularity. Made primarily from [[stainless steel]] or [[aluminium]] (aluminum), they are durable and retain less odor and taste from previous contents than most plastic bottles. But these can sometimes impart a metallic taste. Metal bottles thus often contain a [[resin]] or [[epoxy]] liner to protect contents from taste and odor transfer or corrosion.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Cooper |first=James E. |date=2011 |title=Assessment of bisphenol A released from reusable plastic, aluminum and stainless steel water bottles |journal=Chemosphere |volume=85 |issue=4 |pages=943–947 |doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2011.06.060| pmid = 21741673 | pmc = 3210908 | bibcode = 2011Chmsp..85..943C }}</ref> Although most liners are now BPA-free, older and less expensive models can contain BPA.

Bottles made with food-grade stainless steel ([[SAE 304 stainless steel|grade 304]], also known as 18/8) do not transfer taste or odor. Metal (especially steel) water bottles can be heavier than their plastic counterparts. Single-walled metal bottles readily transfer temperature of contents to external surfaces, which makes them unsuitable for use with unusually hot or cold liquids. Double-walled metal bottles are insulated to keep cold liquids cold and hot liquids hot, without the external surface being too hot or too cold. Because double-walled bottles have more metal in them, they are more expensive. They are typically [[Vacuum-insulated flask|vacuum-insulated]], but some may have a solid or gel insulation between the metal walls. ===Glass=== {{anchor|Glass water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} [[File:Glass Water Bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Glass water bottle with protective silicone sleeve]] Glass flasks have been used since ancient times, though were not common until the [[Early Modern period]] when consistent, bulk manufacturing of glass products became easier. Because they are completely recyclable, BPA-free, and do not retain and transfer taste or odor, glass water bottles are becoming a popular choice for many consumers who are concerned about their health. Glass bottles are heavier than plastic, stainless steel, or aluminium, and are easier to damage or completely break. Like metal, they also have a high level of [[temperature transfer]], so they are not ideal for very hot or cold liquids.<ref>{{cite web | title = Glass Water Bottles: BPA Free Water Bottles | access-date = March 30, 2012 | url = http://gogreentravelgreen.com/green-environmentally-friendly-products-travel-gear/glass-water-bottles-bpa-fre-water-bottles/}}</ref> Some types of vacuum-insulated flasks use an inner layer of glass (which is easy to clean), and an outer layer of metal or plastic which helps shield the glass from breakage. Such bottles may still break if dropped, and thus some brands are triple-layer, with the glass inside two layers of plastic; this is a common configuration for large flasks intended for coffee or other liquids that need to be insulated. ===Filtering=== {{anchor|Filtering water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation|Carbon filtering}} [[File:Filtered water bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Carbon filtering water bottle.]] This type of bottle is often BPA-Free and more commonly uses carbon (activated charcoal) filtration. [[UV light]] can also be used to purify water. UV filtration bottles are popular and convenient for those who are travelling to areas where water quality may be harmful, or where bottled water is not readily available. UV is effective against all water-borne [[pathogens]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Hijnen, W.A.M. | date = 2006 | title = Inactivation credit of UV radiation for viruses, bacteria and protozoan oocysts in water: A review | journal = Water Research | volume = 40 | issue = 1 | pages = 3–22| pmid = 16386286 | doi = 10.1016/j.watres.2005.10.030 | bibcode = 2006WatRe..40....3H }}</ref> [[Carbon filtration]] bottles will eliminate some [[organic chemicals]] and improve the taste and odor of water.

The data is transmitted to a [[smartphone]], which enables tracking of an individual's water intake and alerts the user when they are not properly hydrated. These devices are a result of technology advancements that fall in the broader category of the [[Internet of Things]]. Devices that monitor and collect data related to one's personal health are also part of the [[quantified self]] movement. While several concepts have been introduced, none are currently available commercially. ===Hydration reservoirs=== {{main|Hydration pack}} [[File:Hydration Reservoir.JPG|right|thumb|upright|Hydration reservoir]] Hydration reservoirs, also known as hydration bladders, are large-volume, flexible bags typically carried in a backpack system. Users access water via a sipping tube. This system allows the user to remain engaged in activity without having to stop and unscrew a water bottle.<ref name="George, Steve 1997 p. 58">{{cite magazine |last=George |first=Steve |date=June 30, 1997 |title=Bottle or bladder? |magazine=[[Backpacker (magazine)|Backpacker]] |volume=25 |issue=5 |pages=58}}</ref> Such reservoirs also permit the carrying of a larger water supply (thus a longer hike), as they have both more capacity and better integration into the carrying equipment than an external water bottle or canteen attached to the pack or belt. ==Popularity== Due to growing concern over the environmental impact and cost of disposable plastic water bottles, more people are choosing to fill multi-use water bottles. However, the popularity and availability of disposable plastic water bottles continues to rise. In 2007, Americans consumed 50 billion single-serve bottles of water. Since 2001, the sale of single-serve bottled water has fluctuated by 70 percent, and this trend is continuing.<ref>{{cite web|title= Confronting Challenges: Bottled Water|url= http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|access-date= 2016-05-29|archive-date= 2016-04-29|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160429033928/http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|url-status= dead}}</ref> In 2016, a trend among Americans called "[[water bottle flipping]]" attracted media attention.<ref name="Arnett Rao 2016">{{cite web|last1=Arnett|first1=Dugan|last2=Rao|first2=Sonia|date=2016-09-30|title=Bottle flipping becomes the rage with middle schoolers|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2016/09/29/bottle-flipping-becames-rage-with-middle-schoolers/1INRaYEj9dQILseR5cgVUK/story.html|access-date=2016-10-09|website=BostonGlobe.com}}</ref> ===Health=== Chemicals used for making some types of bottles have been shown to be detrimental to the human health. [[Inhalation]] of chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics is a hazard for the factory workers who handle the material. In many developing countries, [[plastic waste]] is burned rather than recycled or deposited in [[landfills]]. Rural residents of developing countries who burn plastic as a disposal method are not protected from the chemical inhalation hazards associated with this practice. It is important to dispose off water that has been stored in PET bottles that have been exposed to high temperatures for a prolonged period of time or are beyond the expiration date because harmful chemicals may leach from the plastic.<ref name=Halden>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1146/annurev.publhealth.012809.103714|doi-access=free| pmid = 20070188| title = Plastics and Health Risks| journal = Annual Review of Public Health| volume = 31| pages = 179–94| year = 2010| last1 = Halden| first1 = Rolf U.}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Filella|first=Montserrat|date=December 2020|title=Antimony and PET bottles: Checking facts|journal=Chemosphere|language=en|volume=261|pages=127732|doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.127732|pmid=32739689 |bibcode=2020Chmsp.26127732F |s2cid=220943760 |doi-access=free}}</ref> In 2008, researchers from Arizona State University found that storing plastic bottles in temperatures at or above 60&nbsp;°C can cause [[antimony]] to enter the water contained in the bottles.

While PET is considered less toxic than many other types of plastic, the [[Berkeley Ecology Center]] found that manufacturing PET makes toxic emissions in the form of [[nickel]], [[ethylbenzene]], [[ethylene oxide]] and [[benzene]] at levels 100 times higher than those created to make the same amount of glass.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Howard, Brian | title = Message in a Bottle | journal = E: The Environmental Magazine | date = 2003 | volume = 14 | issue = 5 | pages = 26}}</ref> ===Environment=== {{see also|Bottled water}} [[File:Enviro Label.JPG|right|thumb|Label on disposable water bottle highlighting positive environmental attributes.]] Water bottles made of [[glass]], aluminium and [[steel]] are the most readily [[recyclable]]. [[HDPE]] and [[LDPE]] bottles can be recycled as well. Because the manufacturing and transportation of disposable water bottles requires [[petroleum]], a non-renewable resource, the single-serve bottled water industry has come under pressure from concerned consumers. The [[Pacific Institute]] calculates that it required about 17 million barrels of oil to make the disposable plastic bottles for single-serve water that Americans consumed in 2006. To sustain the consumptive use of products relying on plastic components and level of manufactured demand for plastic water bottles,<ref>{{cite web|title= The Water Project|url=https://thewaterproject.org/bottled-water/bottled_water_wasteful |access-date=2016-05-29}}</ref> the end result is shortages of [[fossil fuels]]. Furthermore, it means not only a shortage of the raw materials to make plastics, but also a shortage of the energy required to fuel their production.<ref>Cormier, Zoe. Plastic Unfantastic. This Magazine, Mar–Apr. 2008 18+. General OneFile.

Other bottle manufacturing companies are experimenting with alternative materials such as [[corn starch]] to make new bottles that are more readily [[biodegradable]]. The lowest impact water bottles are those made of glass or metal. They are not made from petroleum and are easily recyclable. By choosing to continuously fill any multi-use water bottle, the consumer keeps disposable bottles out of the [[waste stream]] and minimizes environmental impact. ==See also== * [[Beverage can]] * [[Bottled water]] * [[Carboy]] * [[Edible water bottle]] * [[Low plastic water bottle]] * [[Plastic pollution]] * [[Sipper water bottle]], a water dispenser for pets * [[Refill (scheme)]] ==References== {{Reflist|30em}} {{Bottled water}} {{packaging}} [[Category:Liquid containers]] [[Category:Bottles]]'

The data is transmitted to a [[smartphone]], which enables tracking of an individual's water intake and alerts the user when they are not properly hydrated. These devices are a result of technology advancements that fall in the broader category of the [[Internet of Things]]. Devices that monitor and collect data related to one's personal health are also part of the [[quantified self]] movement. While several concepts have been introduced, none are currently available commercially. ===Hydration reservoirs=== {{main|Hydration pack}} [[File:Hydration Reservoir.JPG|right|thumb|upright|Hydration reservoir]] Hydration reservoirs, also known as hydration bladders, are large-volume, flexible bags typically carried in a backpack system. Users access water via a sipping tube. This system allows the user to remain engaged in activity without having to stop and unscrew a water bottle.<ref name="George, Steve 1997 p. 58">{{cite magazine |last=George |first=Steve |date=June 30, 1997 |title=Bottle or bladder? |magazine=[[Backpacker (magazine)|Backpacker]] |volume=25 |issue=5 |pages=58}}</ref> Such reservoirs also permit the carrying of a larger water supply (thus a longer hike), as they have both more capacity and better integration into the carrying equipment than an external water bottle or canteen attached to the pack or belt. ==Popularity== Due to growing concern over the environmental impact and cost of disposable plastic water bottles, more people are choosing to fill multi-use water bottles. However, the popularity and availability of disposable plastic water bottles continues to rise. In 2007, Americans consumed 50 billion single-serve bottles of water. Since 2001, the sale of single-serve bottled water has fluctuated by 70 percent, and this trend is continuing.<ref>{{cite web|title= Confronting Challenges: Bottled Water|url= http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|access-date= 2016-05-29|archive-date= 2016-04-29|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160429033928/http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|url-status= dead}}</ref> In 2016, a trend among Americans called "[[water bottle flipping]]" attracted media attention.<ref name="Arnett Rao 2016">{{cite web|last1=Arnett|first1=Dugan|last2=Rao|first2=Sonia|date=2016-09-30|title=Bottle flipping becomes the rage with middle schoolers|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2016/09/29/bottle-flipping-becames-rage-with-middle-schoolers/1INRaYEj9dQILseR5cgVUK/story.html|access-date=2016-10-09|website=BostonGlobe.com}}</ref> ===Health=== Chemicals used for making some types of bottles have been shown to be detrimental to the human health. [[Inhalation]] of chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics is a hazard for the factory workers who handle the material. In many developing countries, [[plastic waste]] is burned rather than recycled or deposited in [[landfills]]. Rural residents of developing countries who burn plastic as a disposal method are not protected from the chemical inhalation hazards associated with this practice. It is important to dispose off water that has been stored in PET bottles that have been exposed to high temperatures for a prolonged period of time or are beyond the expiration date because harmful chemicals may leach from the plastic.<ref name=Halden>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1146/annurev.publhealth.012809.103714|doi-access=free| pmid = 20070188| title = Plastics and Health Risks| journal = Annual Review of Public Health| volume = 31| pages = 179–94| year = 2010| last1 = Halden| first1 = Rolf U.}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Filella|first=Montserrat|date=December 2020|title=Antimony and PET bottles: Checking facts|journal=Chemosphere|language=en|volume=261|pages=127732|doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.127732|pmid=32739689 |bibcode=2020Chmsp.26127732F |s2cid=220943760 |doi-access=free}}</ref> In 2008, researchers from Arizona State University found that storing plastic bottles in temperatures at or above 60&nbsp;°C can cause [[antimony]] to enter the water contained in the bottles.

Some creating processes release toxic chemicals into the air and water supply that can immensely affect [[nervous system]]s, [[blood cells]], [[kidneys]], [[immune systems]], and can cause cancer and [[birth defects]].<ref name=Halden/> Most disposable water bottles are made from petroleum found [[polyethylene terephthalate]] (PET). While PET is considered less toxic than many other types of plastic, the [[Berkeley Ecology Center]] found that manufacturing PET makes toxic emissions in the form of [[nickel]], [[ethylbenzene]], [[ethylene oxide]] and [[benzene]] at levels 100 times higher than those created to make the same amount of glass.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Howard, Brian | title = Message in a Bottle | journal = E: The Environmental Magazine | date = 2003 | volume = 14 | issue = 5 | pages = 26}}</ref> ===Environment=== {{see also|Bottled water}} [[File:Enviro Label.JPG|right|thumb|Label on disposable water bottle highlighting positive environmental attributes.]] Water bottles made of [[glass]], aluminium and [[steel]] are the most readily [[recyclable]]. [[HDPE]] and [[LDPE]] bottles can be recycled as well. Because the manufacturing and transportation of disposable water bottles requires [[petroleum]], a non-renewable resource, the single-serve bottled water industry has come under pressure from concerned consumers. The [[Pacific Institute]] calculates that it required about 17 million barrels of oil to make the disposable plastic bottles for single-serve water that Americans consumed in 2006. To sustain the consumptive use of products relying on plastic components and level of manufactured demand for plastic water bottles,<ref>{{cite web|title= The Water Project|url=https://thewaterproject.org/bottled-water/bottled_water_wasteful |access-date=2016-05-29}}</ref> the end result is shortages of [[fossil fuels]]. Furthermore, it means not only a shortage of the raw materials to make plastics, but also a shortage of the energy required to fuel their production.<ref>Cormier, Zoe. Plastic Unfantastic. This Magazine, Mar–Apr. 2008 18+. General OneFile. Accessed, Feb 24, 2012.</ref> Single-serve bottled water industry has responded to consumer concern about the environmental impact of disposable water bottles by significantly reducing the amount of plastic used in bottles.<ref>{{cite web |title=Water Bottles Slim Down |date=December 14, 2007 |work=The Wall Street Journal |url=https://blogs.wsj.com/numbersguy/water-bottles-slim-down-238/ |access-date=April 20, 2012 |author=Carl Bialik}}</ref> The reduced plastic content also results in a lower weight product that uses less energy to transport. Other bottle manufacturing companies are experimenting with alternative materials such as [[corn starch]] to make new bottles that are more readily [[biodegradable]]. The lowest impact water bottles are those made of glass or metal. They are not made from petroleum and are easily recyclable. By choosing to continuously fill any multi-use water bottle, the consumer keeps disposable bottles out of the [[waste stream]] and minimizes environmental impact. ==See also== * [[Beverage can]] * [[Bottled water]] * [[Carboy]] * [[Edible water bottle]] * [[Low plastic water bottle]] * [[Plastic pollution]] * [[Sipper water bottle]], a water dispenser for pets * [[Refill (scheme)]] ==References== {{Reflist|30em}} {{Bottled water}} {{packaging}} [[Category:Liquid containers]] [[Category:Bottles]]'

A '''water bottle''' is a container that is used to hold liquids, mainly [[water]], for the purpose of transporting a drink while travelling or while otherwise away from a supply of potable water.
A '''water bottle''' is a container that is used to hold liquids, mainly [[water]], for the purpos of transporting a drink while travelling or while otherwise away from a supply of potable water.

To drink from a water bottle, you must suck on the tube. Keep on sucking until water comes out, and bob your head up and down.


Water bottles are usually made of [[plastic bottle|plastic]], [[glass bottle|glass]], metal, or some combination of those substances. In the past, water bottles were sometimes made of wood, bark, or animal skins such as [[leather]], hide and [[sheepskin]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}}

Disposable water bottles are often sold filled with potable water, while reusable bottles are often sold empty. [[Reuse of bottles|Reusable water bottles]] help cut down on consumer [[plastic waste]] and carbon emissions.{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}}. A reusable water bottle designed for outdoor activities is also called a ''[[Canteen (bottle)|canteen]]''. ==Types== {{anchor|Types of water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} ===Single-use plastic=== {{anchor|Single-use plastic water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Plastic bottle}} [[File:Water bottle with handle.tif|thumb|upright|A one gallon PETE water bottle with attached [[package handle]]]] Sales of single-use, pre-filled plastic water bottles have increased almost every year for more than a decade.{{which?|date=February 2023}} In 2011, greater than [[United States dollar|US$]]11&nbsp;billion was spent on [[bottled water]] products in the [[United States]] alone.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bottledwater.org/economics/industry-statistics|title=Statistics &#124; IBWA &#124; Bottled Water|website=www.bottledwater.org|date=3 May 2009 }}</ref> The [[International Bottled Water Association]] (IBWA) states that people are increasingly relying on water bottles for convenience and portability. In some countries with low-quality [[tap water]], citizens also use bottled water (including in family-size containers kept in the home) for health reasons. For example, as of 2010, Mexico had an average 8 percent increase per year in bottled water purchases and consumed approximately 13 percent of the world's total of bottled water.<ref name="Johnson">{{cite news |title=In Mexico, fear of tap water fuels bottled-water boom |first=Tim |last=Johnson |date=May 27, 2010 |work=[[McClatchy|McClatchy DC]] |url= https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-world/world/article24583945.html |access-date=December 8, 2010}}</ref> Mexican citizens drink more bottled water than people of any other country, at an average of 61.8 gallons per person each year – more than twice the rate of US [[per capita]] consumption.<ref name="Johnson" /> The increase in the use of single-use personal plastic water bottles has contributed markedly to the country's litter problem, though the increase in the popularity of bottled water has come with a decrease in the growth rate of consumption of [[soft drink]]s<ref name="Johnson" /> (which pose health risks in excessive quantities, as well as the same littering problem). ==Reusable plastic== Multi-use water bottles can be made from [[high-density polyethylene]] (HDPE), [[low-density polyethylene]] (LDPE), [[copolyester]], or [[polypropylene]]. They all offer the advantage of being durable, lightweight, dishwasher-safe, and [[Bisphenol A|BPA]]-free. The main difference between each type of water bottle is the flexibility of the material. Copolyester and polypropylene offer the greatest rigidity; HDPE retains some flexibility; LDPE (most commonly associated with collapsible, [[squeeze bottle]]s) is highly flexible. ==Metal== {{anchor|Metal water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Aluminium bottle}} [[File:Metal Water Bottles.jpeg|right|thumb|Metal water bottles]] Metal water bottles are growing in popularity. Made primarily from [[stainless steel]] or [[aluminium]] (aluminum), they are durable and retain less odor and taste from previous contents than most plastic bottles. But these can sometimes impart a metallic taste. Metal bottles thus often contain a [[resin]] or [[epoxy]] liner to protect contents from taste and odor transfer or corrosion.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Cooper |first=James E. |date=2011 |title=Assessment of bisphenol A released from reusable plastic, aluminum and stainless steel water bottles |journal=Chemosphere |volume=85 |issue=4 |pages=943–947 |doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2011.06.060| pmid = 21741673 | pmc = 3210908 | bibcode = 2011Chmsp..85..943C }}</ref> Although most liners are now BPA-free, older and less expensive models can contain BPA. Glass liners may also be used {{crossref|printworthy=y|(see next subsection)}}. It is not recommended to fill aluminium bottles with [[acidic]] liquids (e.g. orange juice), as this could cause aluminium to leach into the contents of the bottle.<ref>{{Cite journal | author = Veríssimo, Marta I.S. | date = 2006 | title = Leaching of aluminum from cooking pans and food containers | journal = Sensors and Actuators.

Bottles made with food-grade stainless steel ([[SAE 304 stainless steel|grade 304]], also known as 18/8) do not transfer taste or odor. Metal (especially steel) water bottles can be heavier than their plastic counterparts. Single-walled metal bottles readily transfer temperature of contents to external surfaces, which makes them unsuitable for use with unusually hot or cold liquids. Double-walled metal bottles are insulated to keep cold liquids cold and hot liquids hot, without the external surface being too hot or too cold. Because double-walled bottles have more metal in them, they are more expensive. They are typically [[Vacuum-insulated flask|vacuum-insulated]], but some may have a solid or gel insulation between the metal walls. ===Glass=== {{anchor|Glass water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} [[File:Glass Water Bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Glass water bottle with protective silicone sleeve]] Glass flasks have been used since ancient times, though were not common until the [[Early Modern period]] when consistent, bulk manufacturing of glass products became easier. Because they are completely recyclable, BPA-free, and do not retain and transfer taste or odor, glass water bottles are becoming a popular choice for many consumers who are concerned about their health. Glass bottles are heavier than plastic, stainless steel, or aluminium, and are easier to damage or completely break. Like metal, they also have a high level of [[temperature transfer]], so they are not ideal for very hot or cold liquids.<ref>{{cite web | title = Glass Water Bottles: BPA Free Water Bottles | access-date = March 30, 2012 | url = http://gogreentravelgreen.com/green-environmentally-friendly-products-travel-gear/glass-water-bottles-bpa-fre-water-bottles/}}</ref> Some types of vacuum-insulated flasks use an inner layer of glass (which is easy to clean), and an outer layer of metal or plastic which helps shield the glass from breakage. Such bottles may still break if dropped, and thus some brands are triple-layer, with the glass inside two layers of plastic; this is a common configuration for large flasks intended for coffee or other liquids that need to be insulated. ===Filtering=== {{anchor|Filtering water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation|Carbon filtering}} [[File:Filtered water bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Carbon filtering water bottle.]] This type of bottle is often BPA-Free and more commonly uses carbon (activated charcoal) filtration. [[UV light]] can also be used to purify water. UV filtration bottles are popular and convenient for those who are travelling to areas where water quality may be harmful, or where bottled water is not readily available. UV is effective against all water-borne [[pathogens]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Hijnen, W.A.M. | date = 2006 | title = Inactivation credit of UV radiation for viruses, bacteria and protozoan oocysts in water: A review | journal = Water Research | volume = 40 | issue = 1 | pages = 3–22| pmid = 16386286 | doi = 10.1016/j.watres.2005.10.030 | bibcode = 2006WatRe..40....3H }}</ref> [[Carbon filtration]] bottles will eliminate some [[organic chemicals]] and improve the taste and odor of water.

The data is transmitted to a [[smartphone]], which enables tracking of an individual's water intake and alerts the user when they are not properly hydrated. These devices are a result of technology advancements that fall in the broader category of the [[Internet of Things]]. Devices that monitor and collect data related to one's personal health are also part of the [[quantified self]] movement. While several concepts have been introduced, none are currently available commercially. ===Hydration reservoirs=== {{main|Hydration pack}} [[File:Hydration Reservoir.JPG|right|thumb|upright|Hydration reservoir]] Hydration reservoirs, also known as hydration bladders, are large-volume, flexible bags typically carried in a backpack system. Users access water via a sipping tube. This system allows the user to remain engaged in activity without having to stop and unscrew a water bottle.<ref name="George, Steve 1997 p. 58">{{cite magazine |last=George |first=Steve |date=June 30, 1997 |title=Bottle or bladder? |magazine=[[Backpacker (magazine)|Backpacker]] |volume=25 |issue=5 |pages=58}}</ref> Such reservoirs also permit the carrying of a larger water supply (thus a longer hike), as they have both more capacity and better integration into the carrying equipment than an external water bottle or canteen attached to the pack or belt. ==Popularity== Due to growing concern over the environmental impact and cost of disposable plastic water bottles, more people are choosing to fill multi-use water bottles. However, the popularity and availability of disposable plastic water bottles continues to rise. In 2007, Americans consumed 50 billion single-serve bottles of water. Since 2001, the sale of single-serve bottled water has fluctuated by 70 percent, and this trend is continuing.<ref>{{cite web|title= Confronting Challenges: Bottled Water|url= http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|access-date= 2016-05-29|archive-date= 2016-04-29|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160429033928/http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|url-status= dead}}</ref> In 2016, a trend among Americans called "[[water bottle flipping]]" attracted media attention.<ref name="Arnett Rao 2016">{{cite web|last1=Arnett|first1=Dugan|last2=Rao|first2=Sonia|date=2016-09-30|title=Bottle flipping becomes the rage with middle schoolers|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2016/09/29/bottle-flipping-becames-rage-with-middle-schoolers/1INRaYEj9dQILseR5cgVUK/story.html|access-date=2016-10-09|website=BostonGlobe.com}}</ref> ===Health=== Chemicals used for making some types of bottles have been shown to be detrimental to the human health. [[Inhalation]] of chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics is a hazard for the factory workers who handle the material. In many developing countries, [[plastic waste]] is burned rather than recycled or deposited in [[landfills]]. Rural residents of developing countries who burn plastic as a disposal method are not protected from the chemical inhalation hazards associated with this practice. It is important to dispose off water that has been stored in PET bottles that have been exposed to high temperatures for a prolonged period of time or are beyond the expiration date because harmful chemicals may leach from the plastic.<ref name=Halden>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1146/annurev.publhealth.012809.103714|doi-access=free| pmid = 20070188| title = Plastics and Health Risks| journal = Annual Review of Public Health| volume = 31| pages = 179–94| year = 2010| last1 = Halden| first1 = Rolf U.}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Filella|first=Montserrat|date=December 2020|title=Antimony and PET bottles: Checking facts|journal=Chemosphere|language=en|volume=261|pages=127732|doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.127732|pmid=32739689 |bibcode=2020Chmsp.26127732F |s2cid=220943760 |doi-access=free}}</ref> In 2008, researchers from Arizona State University found that storing plastic bottles in temperatures at or above 60&nbsp;°C can cause [[antimony]] to enter the water contained in the bottles.

While PET is considered less toxic than many other types of plastic, the [[Berkeley Ecology Center]] found that manufacturing PET makes toxic emissions in the form of [[nickel]], [[ethylbenzene]], [[ethylene oxide]] and [[benzene]] at levels 100 times higher than those created to make the same amount of glass.<ref>{{cite journal | author = Howard, Brian | title = Message in a Bottle | journal = E: The Environmental Magazine | date = 2003 | volume = 14 | issue = 5 | pages = 26}}</ref> ===Environment=== {{see also|Bottled water}} [[File:Enviro Label.JPG|right|thumb|Label on disposable water bottle highlighting positive environmental attributes.]] Water bottles made of [[glass]], aluminium and [[steel]] are the most readily [[recyclable]]. [[HDPE]] and [[LDPE]] bottles can be recycled as well. Because the manufacturing and transportation of disposable water bottles requires [[petroleum]], a non-renewable resource, the single-serve bottled water industry has come under pressure from concerned consumers.

To drink from a water bottle, you must suck on the tube. Keep on sucking until water comes out, and bob your head up and down. Water bottles are usually made of [[plastic bottle|plastic]], [[glass bottle|glass]], metal, or some combination of those substances. In the past, water bottles were sometimes made of wood, bark, or animal skins such as [[leather]], hide and [[sheepskin]].{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}} Water bottles can be either [[disposable]] or [[reuse|reusable]]. Disposable water bottles are often sold filled with potable water, while reusable bottles are often sold empty. [[Reuse of bottles|Reusable water bottles]] help cut down on consumer [[plastic waste]] and carbon emissions.{{Citation needed|date=July 2022}}. A reusable water bottle designed for outdoor activities is also called a ''[[Canteen (bottle)|canteen]]''. ==Types== {{anchor|Types of water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} ===Single-use plastic=== {{anchor|Single-use plastic water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Plastic bottle}} [[File:Water bottle with handle.tif|thumb|upright|A one gallon PETE water bottle with attached [[package handle]]]] Sales of single-use, pre-filled plastic water bottles have increased almost every year for more than a decade.{{which?|date=February 2023}} In 2011, greater than [[United States dollar|US$]]11&nbsp;billion was spent on [[bottled water]] products in the [[United States]] alone.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.bottledwater.org/economics/industry-statistics|title=Statistics &#124; IBWA &#124; Bottled Water|website=www.bottledwater.org|date=3 May 2009 }}</ref> The [[International Bottled Water Association]] (IBWA) states that people are increasingly relying on water bottles for convenience and portability. In some countries with low-quality [[tap water]], citizens also use bottled water (including in family-size containers kept in the home) for health reasons. For example, as of 2010, Mexico had an average 8 percent increase per year in bottled water purchases and consumed approximately 13 percent of the world's total of bottled water.<ref name="Johnson">{{cite news |title=In Mexico, fear of tap water fuels bottled-water boom |first=Tim |last=Johnson |date=May 27, 2010 |work=[[McClatchy|McClatchy DC]] |url= https://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/nation-world/world/article24583945.html |access-date=December 8, 2010}}</ref> Mexican citizens drink more bottled water than people of any other country, at an average of 61.8 gallons per person each year – more than twice the rate of US [[per capita]] consumption.<ref name="Johnson" /> The increase in the use of single-use personal plastic water bottles has contributed markedly to the country's litter problem, though the increase in the popularity of bottled water has come with a decrease in the growth rate of consumption of [[soft drink]]s<ref name="Johnson" /> (which pose health risks in excessive quantities, as well as the same littering problem). ==Reusable plastic== Multi-use water bottles can be made from [[high-density polyethylene]] (HDPE), [[low-density polyethylene]] (LDPE), [[copolyester]], or [[polypropylene]]. They all offer the advantage of being durable, lightweight, dishwasher-safe, and [[Bisphenol A|BPA]]-free. The main difference between each type of water bottle is the flexibility of the material. Copolyester and polypropylene offer the greatest rigidity; HDPE retains some flexibility; LDPE (most commonly associated with collapsible, [[squeeze bottle]]s) is highly flexible. ==Metal== {{anchor|Metal water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Aluminium bottle}} [[File:Metal Water Bottles.jpeg|right|thumb|Metal water bottles]] Metal water bottles are growing in popularity. Made primarily from [[stainless steel]] or [[aluminium]] (aluminum), they are durable and retain less odor and taste from previous contents than most plastic bottles. But these can sometimes impart a metallic taste. Metal bottles thus often contain a [[resin]] or [[epoxy]] liner to protect contents from taste and odor transfer or corrosion.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Cooper |first=James E. |date=2011 |title=Assessment of bisphenol A released from reusable plastic, aluminum and stainless steel water bottles |journal=Chemosphere |volume=85 |issue=4 |pages=943–947 |doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2011.06.060| pmid = 21741673 | pmc = 3210908 | bibcode = 2011Chmsp..85..943C }}</ref> Although most liners are now BPA-free, older and less expensive models can contain BPA. Glass liners may also be used {{crossref|printworthy=y|(see next subsection)}}. It is not recommended to fill aluminium bottles with [[acidic]] liquids (e.g. orange juice), as this could cause aluminium to leach into the contents of the bottle.<ref>{{Cite journal | author = Veríssimo, Marta I.S. | date = 2006 | title = Leaching of aluminum from cooking pans and food containers | journal = Sensors and Actuators.

Bottles made with food-grade stainless steel ([[SAE 304 stainless steel|grade 304]], also known as 18/8) do not transfer taste or odor. Metal (especially steel) water bottles can be heavier than their plastic counterparts. Single-walled metal bottles readily transfer temperature of contents to external surfaces, which makes them unsuitable for use with unusually hot or cold liquids. Double-walled metal bottles are insulated to keep cold liquids cold and hot liquids hot, without the external surface being too hot or too cold. Because double-walled bottles have more metal in them, they are more expensive. They are typically [[Vacuum-insulated flask|vacuum-insulated]], but some may have a solid or gel insulation between the metal walls. ===Glass=== {{anchor|Glass water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} [[File:Glass Water Bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Glass water bottle with protective silicone sleeve]] Glass flasks have been used since ancient times, though were not common until the [[Early Modern period]] when consistent, bulk manufacturing of glass products became easier. Because they are completely recyclable, BPA-free, and do not retain and transfer taste or odor, glass water bottles are becoming a popular choice for many consumers who are concerned about their health. Glass bottles are heavier than plastic, stainless steel, or aluminium, and are easier to damage or completely break. Like metal, they also have a high level of [[temperature transfer]], so they are not ideal for very hot or cold liquids.<ref>{{cite web | title = Glass Water Bottles: BPA Free Water Bottles | access-date = March 30, 2012 | url = http://gogreentravelgreen.com/green-environmentally-friendly-products-travel-gear/glass-water-bottles-bpa-fre-water-bottles/}}</ref> Some types of vacuum-insulated flasks use an inner layer of glass (which is easy to clean), and an outer layer of metal or plastic which helps shield the glass from breakage. Such bottles may still break if dropped, and thus some brands are triple-layer, with the glass inside two layers of plastic; this is a common configuration for large flasks intended for coffee or other liquids that need to be insulated. ===Filtering=== {{anchor|Filtering water bottles|reason=Former section heading; may have incoming links.}} {{see also|Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation|Carbon filtering}} [[File:Filtered water bottle.JPG|right|thumb|Carbon filtering water bottle.]] This type of bottle is often BPA-Free and more commonly uses carbon (activated charcoal) filtration. [[UV light]] can also be used to purify water. UV filtration bottles are popular and convenient for those who are travelling to areas where water quality may be harmful, or where bottled water is not readily available. UV is effective against all water-borne [[pathogens]].<ref>{{cite journal | author = Hijnen, W.A.M. | date = 2006 | title = Inactivation credit of UV radiation for viruses, bacteria and protozoan oocysts in water: A review | journal = Water Research | volume = 40 | issue = 1 | pages = 3–22| pmid = 16386286 | doi = 10.1016/j.watres.2005.10.030 | bibcode = 2006WatRe..40....3H }}</ref> [[Carbon filtration]] bottles will eliminate some [[organic chemicals]] and improve the taste and odor of water.

The data is transmitted to a [[smartphone]], which enables tracking of an individual's water intake and alerts the user when they are not properly hydrated. These devices are a result of technology advancements that fall in the broader category of the [[Internet of Things]]. Devices that monitor and collect data related to one's personal health are also part of the [[quantified self]] movement. While several concepts have been introduced, none are currently available commercially. ===Hydration reservoirs=== {{main|Hydration pack}} [[File:Hydration Reservoir.JPG|right|thumb|upright|Hydration reservoir]] Hydration reservoirs, also known as hydration bladders, are large-volume, flexible bags typically carried in a backpack system. Users access water via a sipping tube. This system allows the user to remain engaged in activity without having to stop and unscrew a water bottle.<ref name="George, Steve 1997 p. 58">{{cite magazine |last=George |first=Steve |date=June 30, 1997 |title=Bottle or bladder? |magazine=[[Backpacker (magazine)|Backpacker]] |volume=25 |issue=5 |pages=58}}</ref> Such reservoirs also permit the carrying of a larger water supply (thus a longer hike), as they have both more capacity and better integration into the carrying equipment than an external water bottle or canteen attached to the pack or belt. ==Popularity== Due to growing concern over the environmental impact and cost of disposable plastic water bottles, more people are choosing to fill multi-use water bottles. However, the popularity and availability of disposable plastic water bottles continues to rise. In 2007, Americans consumed 50 billion single-serve bottles of water. Since 2001, the sale of single-serve bottled water has fluctuated by 70 percent, and this trend is continuing.<ref>{{cite web|title= Confronting Challenges: Bottled Water|url= http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|access-date= 2016-05-29|archive-date= 2016-04-29|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20160429033928/http://www.bottledwater.org/public/2008%20Market%20Report%20Findings%20reported%20in%20April%202009.pdf|url-status= dead}}</ref> In 2016, a trend among Americans called "[[water bottle flipping]]" attracted media attention.<ref name="Arnett Rao 2016">{{cite web|last1=Arnett|first1=Dugan|last2=Rao|first2=Sonia|date=2016-09-30|title=Bottle flipping becomes the rage with middle schoolers|url=https://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/2016/09/29/bottle-flipping-becames-rage-with-middle-schoolers/1INRaYEj9dQILseR5cgVUK/story.html|access-date=2016-10-09|website=BostonGlobe.com}}</ref> ===Health=== Chemicals used for making some types of bottles have been shown to be detrimental to the human health. [[Inhalation]] of chemicals used in the manufacture of plastics is a hazard for the factory workers who handle the material. In many developing countries, [[plastic waste]] is burned rather than recycled or deposited in [[landfills]]. Rural residents of developing countries who burn plastic as a disposal method are not protected from the chemical inhalation hazards associated with this practice. It is important to dispose off water that has been stored in PET bottles that have been exposed to high temperatures for a prolonged period of time or are beyond the expiration date because harmful chemicals may leach from the plastic.<ref name=Halden>{{cite journal | doi = 10.1146/annurev.publhealth.012809.103714|doi-access=free| pmid = 20070188| title = Plastics and Health Risks| journal = Annual Review of Public Health| volume = 31| pages = 179–94| year = 2010| last1 = Halden| first1 = Rolf U.}}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|last=Filella|first=Montserrat|date=December 2020|title=Antimony and PET bottles: Checking facts|journal=Chemosphere|language=en|volume=261|pages=127732|doi=10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.127732|pmid=32739689 |bibcode=2020Chmsp.26127732F |s2cid=220943760 |doi-access=free}}</ref> In 2008, researchers from Arizona State University found that storing plastic bottles in temperatures at or above 60&nbsp;°C can cause [[antimony]] to enter the water contained in the bottles.

Made primarily from <a href="/info/en/?search=Stainless_steel" title="Stainless steel">stainless steel</a> or <a href="/info/en/?search=Aluminium" title="Aluminium">aluminium</a> (aluminum), they are durable and retain less odor and taste from previous contents than most plastic bottles. But these can sometimes impart a metallic taste. Metal bottles thus often contain a <a href="/info/en/?search=Resin" title="Resin">resin</a> or <a href="/info/en/?search=Epoxy" title="Epoxy">epoxy</a> liner to protect contents from taste and odor transfer or corrosion.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3">&#91;3&#93;</a></sup> Although most liners are now BPA-free, older and less expensive models can contain BPA. Glass liners may also be used <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1033199720">.mw-parser-output div.crossreference{padding-left:0}</style><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1033289096"><span role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable crossreference selfref">(see next subsection)</span>. </p><p>It is not recommended to fill aluminium bottles with <a href="/info/en/?search=Acidic" class="mw-redirect" title="Acidic">acidic</a> liquids (e.g. orange juice), as this could cause aluminium to leach into the contents of the bottle.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4">&#91;4&#93;</a></sup> Depending on the type of source material and manufacturing process behind a stainless steel bottle, trace amounts of minerals can leach into contents from this type of bottle as well.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-5">&#91;5&#93;</a></sup> Stainless steel bottles that do not contain a liner have been known to transfer a <a href="/info/en/?search=Rust" title="Rust">rusty</a> taste and odor to contents. Bottles made with food-grade stainless steel (<a href="/info/en/?search=SAE_304_stainless_steel" title="SAE 304 stainless steel">grade 304</a>, also known as 18/8) do not transfer taste or odor. </p><p>Metal (especially steel) water bottles can be heavier than their plastic counterparts. Single-walled metal bottles readily transfer temperature of contents to external surfaces, which makes them unsuitable for use with unusually hot or cold liquids. Double-walled metal bottles are insulated to keep cold liquids cold and hot liquids hot, without the external surface being too hot or too cold. Because double-walled bottles have more metal in them, they are more expensive. They are typically <a href="/info/en/?search=Vacuum-insulated_flask" class="mw-redirect" title="Vacuum-insulated flask">vacuum-insulated</a>, but some may have a solid or gel insulation between the metal walls. </p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Glass">Glass</span><span class="mw-editsection"> <a role="button" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Water_bottle&amp;action=edit&amp;section=5"title="Edit section: Glass" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> <span class="minerva-icon minerva-icon--edit"></span> <span>edit</span> </a> </span> </h3> <p><span class="anchor" id="Glass_water_bottles"></span> </p> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/info/en/?search=File:Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG" class="mw-file-description"><img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG/220px-Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG/330px-Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5b/Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG/440px-Glass_Water_Bottle.JPG 2x" data-file-width="1024" data-file-height="768" /></a><figcaption>Glass water bottle with protective silicone sleeve</figcaption></figure> <p>Glass flasks have been used since ancient times, though were not common until the <a href="/info/en/?search=Early_Modern_period" class="mw-redirect" title="Early Modern period">Early Modern period</a> when consistent, bulk manufacturing of glass products became easier.
