Plastic funnel

Introduction to Plastic funnel

Plastic funnels are laboratory tools used for pouring liquids, transferring chemicals, or supporting filtration to separate precipitates from solutions. Thanks to high mechanical strength and reduced breakage risk compared to conventional glass funnels, they enhance operator safety in analytical environments.

When selecting plastic funnels, buyers can consider autoclavable polypropylene (PP) or high-density polyethylene (HD-PE) with good chemical corrosion resistance. Funnel styles are diverse, including 60° steep liquid pouring funnels with diameters from 30mm to 400mm, 3.5ml to 100ml capacity funnels with anti-overflow rims, or two-piece separable Buchner funnels for vacuum filtration. Currently, Hoa Viet distributes imported plastic funnels from Vitlab (Germany) and Aptaca (Italy), meeting food contact requirements under Regulation (EU) No. 10/2011.

What materials are laboratory plastic funnels usually made of?

Two common materials are PP and HD-PE plastics, offering good chemical corrosion resistance and non-fragile properties. Among them, PP has the advantage of heat resistance and autoclavability, while HD-PE plastic is typically used for general pouring and storage needs.

What are the distinct structural features of PP Buchner funnels?

PP plastic Buchner funnels are specialized for vacuum filtration techniques in testing laboratories. The product is designed in two separable parts, allowing easy disassembly for deep cleaning of the filtration surface.

Which brands of plastic funnels does Hoa Viet distribute?

Hoa Viet currently supplies genuine plastic funnel lines from Aptaca (Italy) and Vitlab (Germany). Customers can contact Hoa Viet directly for consultation on selecting the appropriate size and to Request a quote.

What should be noted regarding the storage and hanging of plastic funnels?

Many funnel lines from Vitlab and Aptaca are designed with a convenient handle or hanging hole on the rim. After cleaning, users can hang the funnels on a rack to drain naturally, saving space and keeping the ware dry and ventilated.
