Filter Paper
Product Code : SCL-CL-11608
Filter Paper (SKU SCL-CL-11608) is a 120 mm diameter circle of laboratory filter paper used to clarify liquids and separate solids from solutions. It covers a wide range of routine laboratory work and is widely used in education for simple qualitative separations, from school filtration activities to college practicals. Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, testing laboratories, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The paper is supplied as round sheets 120 mm in diameter, ready to be folded into a cone and set in a funnel. It holds back suspended particles while the clear filtrate passes through, which suits clarifying liquids and collecting precipitates in teaching and general laboratories.

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 by filtration.
- Class 11–12 chemistry practicals: removing insoluble impurities before crystallisation.
- 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 as 120 mm diameter circles, as described above. The number of circles per pack and the pack form are stated on the quotation; a funnel and stand are separate items that can be ordered with it.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is this filter paper?
The circles are 120 mm in diameter. Folded into quarters, a circle forms a cone that sits in a glass funnel for gravity filtration.
What is filter paper used for in school laboratories?
It is used to separate insoluble solids from liquids, for example sand from water, and to collect precipitates or crystals in chemistry practicals.
Who supplies the Filter Paper?
Science Lab Supplies supplies it from Ambala, India, and quotes it for single schools, college departments and tender contractors, together with funnels and other filtration items.
Can filter paper be ordered with glass funnels for a new lab?
Yes. List the filter paper, funnels, stands and any other items with quantities, and one quotation will cover them all.
