| Separating
Funnels |
| Separating funnels are used to separate immiscible solvents such as water from organic solvents and are most commonly used in solvent extraction. Their tapered shapes allows for efficient separation of the two layers. There are two types of funnel, those fitted with a ground glass tap (1) and those with a PTFE (‘Rotaflow’) screw type tap (2). |
