Separatory funnel through a valve away from the less dense liquid, which remains in the separatory funnel. A separating funnel takes the shape of a cone with a hemispherical end. It has a stopper at the top and stopcock (tap), at the bottom. Separating funnels used in laboratories are typically made from borosilicate glass and their stopcocks are made from glass or PTFE.

The sloping sides are designed to facilitate the identification of the layers. The stopcock-controlled
