DURAN® Centrifuge Tube with conical bottom 60°

DURAN® Centifuge Tube, conical bottom 60°, 50 mL, Ø 34 x 100 mm
One of the most important basic process engineering methods is the separation of mixtures of substances. This working method includes centrifugation, which exploits the concept of mass inertia. A mixture of substances to be separated is filled into centrifuge tubes, placed in a centrifuge and rotated. Due to the high rotation speed, heavier particles are pushed outwards faster and further away than the lighter ones. This results in separation based on the mass or density of the individual material components.
Features and Benefits:

• Very resistant to mechanical loading
• Due to the conical bottom even small amounts of solids can be collected and separated
• The angle of 60° enables the detection of small quantities of solids

Application: Centrifugation, Separation of different particles due to different mass inertia (density), Separation of materials by utilization of centrifugal force
