Separatory Funnel PP
Product Code : LSK-LF-10405
Separatory Funnel PP (SKU LSK-LF-10405) is a pear-shaped separatory funnel moulded in polypropylene, with a PP stopcock carrying a self-lubricating PTFE plug and a leakproof threaded screw cap. Being plastic and autoclavable, it suits school labs, biology and microbiology work and field or teaching settings where glass breakage is a concern. Science Lab Supplies delivers it from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The body is pear shaped polypropylene with good clarity and strength. Its PP stopcock, fitted with a self-lubricating PTFE plug, is push-fitted onto the stem, and a threaded screw cap closes the neck leakproof. The funnel can be autoclaved and comes in 100, 250 and 500 ml capacities.

Applications and Experiments for the PP Separatory Funnel
This plastic funnel separates immiscible liquids just like a glass one, but is lighter and far less likely to break when dropped. The screw cap lets it be shaken hard without leaking, and because it can be autoclaved it also serves biology and microbiology labs that need a sterilisable funnel.
- Class 9–12 science: safe separation of oil and water by younger students.
- B.Sc. chemistry and biochemistry: aqueous extractions and washes.
- Microbiology and life-science labs: handling liquids that must be autoclaved.
- Field and mobile labs: extractions where glass is impractical.
Check solvent compatibility before use, as some organic solvents attack polypropylene; for such solvents a glass funnel is the better choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the funnel be autoclaved?
Yes. The listing describes the PP separatory funnel as autoclavable, so it can be sterilised for biology and microbiology work.
Does the stopcock need grease?
No. The PP stopcock uses a self-lubricating PTFE plug, so it turns without grease and does not contaminate the liquid.
Why choose polypropylene over glass?
Polypropylene is light and resists breakage, which suits younger students and field use. Glass is preferred for strong organic solvents that can attack plastics.
Who supplies the Separatory Funnel PP?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, laboratories and contractors, and can quote it with holders or glass funnels.
