Quick answer: A Plastic Buchner Funnel is a flat-bottomed, perforated funnel used with filter paper for vacuum filtration, letting solid precipitate be separated from a liquid quickly and efficiently in a chemistry lab. Buchner Funnel, Plastic is priced at approximately ₹165 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
The Plastic Buchner Funnel has a flat, perforated base designed to hold a circle of filter paper in place while connected to a vacuum filtration flask, pulling liquid through the paper faster than gravity filtration alone. This is especially useful when separating a solid precipitate from its mother liquor in a synthesis or purification procedure, where speed and a clean separation both matter. Made from high-performance polypropylene, this version resists corrosive chemicals and thermal stress, and its two-piece design (funnel body separate from the base plate) makes it easier to clean thoroughly between uses than a one-piece design, supporting a contamination-free result for the next filtration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Buchner funnel used for?
It is used in vacuum filtration to separate a solid precipitate from a liquid, pulling the liquid through filter paper faster than gravity filtration alone.
Why is the two-piece design useful?
It allows the funnel body and base plate to be separated for more thorough cleaning between uses, helping avoid contamination between different filtration tasks.
What vacuum flask does this funnel work with?
It is designed to be used with a standard vacuum filtration (Büchner) flask setup; confirm compatibility with your specific flask size with STEMAids before ordering.
Does STEMAids supply this in bulk for institutional labs?
Yes — STEMAids supplies laboratory equipment including Buchner funnels for institutional and bulk orders; contact STEMAids to confirm current quantities and pricing.
Are exact funnel dimensions and filter paper size available for tender specification?
Exact dimensions and compatible filter paper size have not been independently verified for this listing. Institutions preparing tender documents should confirm precise specifications directly with STEMAids before finalising procurement paperwork.
Is STEMAids a registered manufacturer of this product?
Yes. Eduscope Smart Learning Solutions Private Limited is a Udyam-registered micro manufacturing enterprise (UDYAM-DL-06-0069460) and is ISO 9001:2015 certified. See the About page for full registration and certification details — manufacturer-stated, verify before citing in procurement documents.
