Applications and Experiments for Filter Paper
Filter paper is the everyday material for gravity filtration in chemistry and science classes. It supports NCERT Class 6 and Class 9 separation activities, Class 11–12 practicals where a precipitate or crystals must be separated, and routine clarification of liquids in food, agriculture and environmental laboratories.
- NCERT Class 6 and Class 9 science: separating sand or chalk from water, pouring the mixture down a Glass Stirrer (Agitator) onto the paper.
- Class 11–12 chemistry practicals: removing insoluble impurities before crystallisation in 180 mm glass Crystallizers.
- Qualitative analysis: separating a precipitate from its solution.
- Food, agriculture and air-monitoring laboratories: clarifying liquid samples before further tests.
Standard Scope of Supply
Filter Paper is supplied in the 120 mm diameter size described above. The number of sheets per pack and the pack form are stated on the quotation, and a funnel, funnel stand or other filtration glassware can be added to the same order if needed.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Quotations are available for one pack or for a term's supply across several laboratories, each stating packing, delivery time and price for that quantity. Funnels, flasks and other chemistry lab equipment in India from a laboratory glassware supplier in India can go on the same quotation.
Science Lab Supplies, a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, can ship to buyers in South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia and Peru. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Filtration supplies can be priced by writing in on the contact page or adding them to the enquiry cart; departments buying through a tender will find the process on the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
