Explanation:
María:

Te he puesto tres palabras para que escojas la que más se ajuste al mercado al cual está destinada tu traducción. Obviamente se trata de una resina o composite que se encuentra en la mitad inferior del frasco, que es la palabra que más te aconsejo si el producto está destinado para América Latina. Como dicho compuesto reacciona al ponerse en contacto con el aire, está cubierto por una capa de cera que tienes que eliminar con agua hiviendo.

agree  Esperanza Gallegos: A flask is a "matraz". I don't know the other one. My source is a Mexican chemist.

recipiente


Explanation:
A menos que la forma del "flask" en cuestión sea una característica fundamental, creo que "recipiente" puede resultarte un término neutro y adecuado.
