FAQs

What is a Buchner funnel used for?

A Buchner funnel is a laboratory filtration device that separates solids from liquids, particularly in vacuum filtration, where reduced pressure accelerates the process and improves efficiency compared with gravity filtration. It’s widely used in chemistry labs, classrooms, and industrial settings for reliable solid‑liquid separation.

Can this funnel be used with vacuum filtration?

Yes, this Buchner funnel works with vacuum filtration systems. When connected to a vacuum source such as a pump or aspirator, negative pressure accelerates filtration by drawing liquid through the filter plate, leaving solids behind. This makes the separation process faster and more effective than gravity alone.

Do I need filter paper with this funnel?

Using filter paper with this Buchner funnel improves filtration precision and particle retention. While medium‑porosity plates can sometimes be used without paper, matching the correct paper size ensures better separation of solids and prevents contamination or clogging during filtration.

What materials is this funnel made from?

This Buchner funnel is molded from durable polypropylene (PP), a rugged plastic resistant to corrosion, breakage, and frequent handling. Its robust construction makes it suitable for classrooms and professional labs where durability and chemical resistance are essential.
