Separating funnel with Rotaflow stop cork 2 ltrs

A separating funnel with a Rotaflow stop cork and a 2-liter capacity is a laboratory glassware piece designed for liquid-liquid extractions. It is typically made of clear glass and has a conical or pear-shaped body that allows for the separation of immiscible liquids based on their densities.

The Rotaflow stop cork features a precision stopcock mechanism that allows controlled and leak-free release of liquids from the funnel, improving safety and accuracy during liquid transfer. The 2-liter capacity indicates it can hold up to two liters of liquid, making it suitable for medium-scale laboratory processes. The apparatus is used to separate two immiscible liquids, commonly an organic solvent and an aqueous phase, by allowing the denser liquid to be drained out through the stopcock at the bottom.

This setup is essential in chemical synthesis, purification, and analytical processes where careful phase separation is required. The Rotaflow stop cork enhances operational control compared to conventional plain cork or glass stopcocks.

The generated image depicts a clear glass separating funnel with a visible Rotaflow stop cork at the base for easy liquid dispensing and an upper cork stopper to seal the funnel during the extraction process. The funnel is marked for a 2-liter volume capacity.
