Buchner Flasks
Buchner Flasks are essential laboratory equipment designed to be used with Buchner funnels in vacuum filtration setups. These flasks are made of durable glass or other materials, and are specifically shaped to withstand vacuum pressures during filtration processes.
Properties:
- Material: Typically made from borosilicate glass for excellent resistance to thermal and chemical shock.
- Shape: Flat-bottomed to provide stability during vacuum filtration.
- Size: Available in various sizes to fit different laboratory filtration needs.
Specification:
- Material: Borosilicate glass, resistant to thermal shock and most chemicals.
- Capacity: Available in sizes ranging from 250ml to 5000ml.
- Neck Design: Features a neck designed to fit vacuum adapters or rubber stoppers.
Uses and Application:
- Primarily used in vacuum filtration systems to collect filtrate after separating solids from liquids.
- Common in chemistry and biology labs for various filtration, distillation, and drying procedures.
- Used in both analytical and preparative applications to separate mixtures with precision.
Storage:
- Store in a dry, clean area to prevent breakage.
- Avoid stacking heavy objects on top of the flask to prevent crushing.
- Ensure the flask is completely clean and dry before storing to avoid contamination.
Hazardous Information:
- Fragility: Glass flasks are fragile and can break when mishandled or exposed to extreme temperature changes.
- Pressure: Vacuum filtration requires careful handling to avoid implosion.
Safety Measures:
- Inspect the flask for cracks or chips before use to ensure safe operation.
- Always wear protective eyewear and gloves when working with vacuum filtration setups.
- Ensure the flask is securely connected to the filtration system to prevent accidents during filtration.
Available in 100ml, 250ml, 500ml,1000ml, 2000ml and 5000ml.
