Separating Funnel - Poly Pear 250ml

This 250ml Pear-Shaped Separating Funnel is made from strong polypropylene and designed for educational and laboratory use where chemical separation or solvent extraction is required. With high clarity for observing liquid layers and a secure leak-proof threaded screw cap, it's a safe and durable option for demonstrating immiscibility and density differences.

The self-lubricating PTFE stopcock ensures smooth and controlled release of liquids, while the autoclavable nature of the funnel allows for repeated sterilisation and use in sterile environments. It's a highly functional and cost-effective tool for chemistry classrooms.
