{"product_id":"porcelain-buchner-funnel-glazed-60mm","title":"Porcelain Buchner Funnel - Glazed","description":"\u003cp\u003eA glazed porcelain Buchner funnel with a thin stem, made for vacuum filtration. It's glazed inside and out except for the top rim, and it's designed to seal well and last. The glaze protects the porcelain from chemical attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach funnel has its size glazed permanently onto the outside wall, as is common with Chinese laboratory porcelain. If that marking or the brand doesn't suit your lab, choose another Buchner funnel from our range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the rim is left unglazed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePorcelain has to rest on a surface while it is fired in the kiln. A bare rim can't fuse to the kiln shelf or firing rack, and it lets the funnel be handled and turned over safely while it's being made.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe unglazed rim has a slightly textured edge, which helps prevent small chips when you turn the funnel upside down on a flat bench or stack funnels for storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe smooth white glaze resists aggressive acids, organic solvents and alkalis almost completely.

The taper also lets liquid drain smoothly, stops splashing and prevents air locks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSizes\u003c\/strong\u003e (outer rim diameter)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e60mm (fits 55mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e80mm (fits 65mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100mm (fits 90mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e150mm (fits 125mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e200mm (fits 185mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e250mm (fits 240mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300mm (fits 285mm filter paper)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: dense laboratory porcelain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: glazed over the whole inside and outside to protect against chemicals, except the top rim, which is left unglazed so it can't fuse in the kiln\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFilter plate: fixed perforated plate with evenly spaced drain holes to support round filter papers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStem: thin and tapered, to fit narrow flask necks, avoid vacuum bottlenecks and run liquid cleanly down the side wall of the flask\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChemical resistance: organic solvents, aggressive acids and alkalis (not hydrofluoric acid)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTemperature: safe for autoclave sterilisation, and stable through rapid temperature changes up to 1,000 °C without the glaze softening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize marking: size permanently glazed on\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of origin: China\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SmartLabs","offers":[{"title":"60mm (Fits 55mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737301155993,"sku":"CH-C144-1","price":77.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"80mm (Fits 65mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737301188761,"sku":"CH-C145-1","price":115.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mm (Fits 90mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737301221529,"sku":"CH-C146-1","price":195.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"150mm (Fits 125mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737302073497,"sku":"CH-C149-1","price":455.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"200mm (Fits 185mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737303613593,"sku":"CH-C151-1","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"250mm (Fits 240mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737303646361,"sku":"CH-C152-1","price":1900.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true},{"title":"300mm (Fits 285mm Filter Paper)","offer_id":67737303679129,"sku":"CH-C152-2","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/3584\/1945\/files\/b7f155db2d2aea69c2324a8d4789f685.png?v=1792493484","url":"https:\/\/smartlabs.co.za\/products\/porcelain-buchner-funnel-glazed-60mm","provider":"SmartLabs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
