Flashing of PET bottles occurs due to excessive material being squeezed out of the mold during the manufacturing process. This can happen if the mold is not properly aligned or if the temperature and pressure are not set correctly. Additionally, poor quality control or worn out mold components can also lead to flashing.

Is SODIS just as effective with glass bottles as it is with clear plastic PET bottles?

Generally speaking, glass bottles will work for the SODIS process although they are much thicker walls and generally do not allow as much UV radiation through as thin walled clear plastic PET bottles which are the container of choice. The main disadvantages of glass bottles are the weight and the fact that they can break if dropped. They are also not as plentiful in the rural areas of developing countries where this process is being targeted at the household level. Another disadvantage is the lack of screw top lids found on plastic bottles. They are more difficult to cap and prevent leakage during the process.
