Not to my knowledge. Usually, the color lid choice is at the discretion of the chemical supplier. If you need safety info the warnings are usually
print on the bottle as well as a fire diamond. The best practice is to refer to the reagent's MSDS prior to handling... It usually gives recommended
PPE and safety precautions.TmNhRhMgBrSe - 7-4-2020 at 04:45
If no difference then why not only use white?elementcollector1 - 7-4-2020 at 10:52
White's a colored dye, and other colors might be cheaper. Black would seem to be the cheapest, but perhaps the others are used on a per-supplier basis
to differentiate types? It's not industrially standardized, as far as I know.unionised - 7-4-2020 at 12:41
Duran bottles use blue and red to colour code the material from which the lid is made
red for polybutylene terephthalate
blue for polypropylene.CharlieA - 7-4-2020 at 16:29
A general storage code, attributed to J. T. Baker chemical company, uses different colors to indicate the primary storage consideration for a
chemical. Some of the colors are:
white = corrosive;
yellow = oxidizing and/or reactive;
red = flammable;
blue = toxic;
green = no more than a moderate hazard.

The white colour not correction fluid white, is plastic original white.
