Abstract
Provided is a substrate storage container including a valve(s) capable of controlling flow of gas without using a metallic member. The valve(s) are attached to a substrate storage container and include: a cylindrical body having an open edge and an interior space; a stopcock portion partitioning the interior space into a first space and a second space and extending to the open edge; and an elastic body covering the open edge and the stopcock portion. The first space has a first communication hole communicating with an outside of the container body. The second space has a second communication hole communicating with an inside of the container body. The elastic body controls flow of gas relative to the container body by closely contacting the stopcock portion or separating from the stopcock portion.
