Separatory Funnel PP
Product Code : LSK-LF-10405
Separatory Funnel PP (SKU LSK-LF-10405) is a pear-shaped separatory funnel made of polypropylene, with a PP stopcock carrying a self-lubricating PTFE plug and a leakproof threaded screw cap. Being autoclavable, it suits school labs, biology and microbiology work and teaching settings where a plastic funnel is preferred to glass. Science Lab Supplies sends quotations for it from Ambala, India to schools, colleges, training institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
The polypropylene separatory funnel is detailed row by row in the table below.

Applications and Experiments for the PP Separatory Funnel
This plastic funnel separates immiscible liquids in the same way as a glass one, and its strong polypropylene body suits benches where glass is a concern. The screw cap lets it be shaken without leaking, and because it can be autoclaved it also serves biology and microbiology labs that need a sterilisable funnel.
- Class 9–12 science: separation of oil and water by younger students, with rinsing from a Wash Bottle Lab.
- B.Sc. chemistry and biochemistry: aqueous extractions and washes.
- Microbiology and life-science labs: handling liquids that must be autoclaved, alongside a Flask Erlenmeyer with Screw Cap whose polyethylene cap is also autoclavable.
- Field and outreach teaching: simple extractions away from a fixed laboratory.
Check solvent compatibility before use, as some organic solvents attack polypropylene; for such solvents a glass funnel is the better choice.
Standard Scope of Supply
Each funnel is supplied with its PP stopcock and PTFE plug fitted to the stem and its threaded screw cap, in the 100, 250 or 500 ml capacity you choose. Holders and stands are separate and can be added to the quotation for a complete extraction station.

Operating as a registered exporter under an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Iraq, Nigeria, Kenya, Ghana, Ethiopia and Tanzania. A short note on the contact page with your capacities is enough to start, or save the funnel together with holders in the enquiry cart; public-sector buyers can follow the lab tender page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can the funnel be autoclaved?
Yes. The PP separatory funnel is autoclavable, so it can be sterilised for biology and microbiology work. Remove the screw cap or loosen it before autoclaving so pressure can equalise.
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. It is push-fitted to the stem of the funnel.
Why choose polypropylene over glass?
The polypropylene body offers clarity and strength and can be autoclaved, which suits younger students and biology work. Glass is preferred for strong organic solvents that can attack plastics.
Who supplies the Separatory Funnel PP?
This plastic funnel is priced and shipped by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India, for schools, colleges, laboratories and contractors, and holders or glass funnels can join the same quotation.
