What Are the Buchner Funnels, Polypropylene Used For?
A Buchner funnel separates a solid from a liquid by drawing the liquid through a filter under reduced pressure, which is quicker than filtering by gravity alone. Filter paper is laid on the perforated plate in the top portion, the two portions are fitted together so that a vacuum can be formed, and the mixture is poured in; the liquid is pulled through the plate while the solid stays behind on the paper. As the polypropylene funnels can be autoclaved, they can also be sterilised between uses.
