If M is an oriented 3–manifold, let S(M) denote the Homflypt skein module of M. We show that S(M1#M2) is isomorphic to S(M1) ⊗ S(M2) modulo torsion. In fact, we show that S(M1#M2) is isomorphic to S(M1) ⊗ S(M2) if we are working over a certain localized ring. We show the similar result holds for relative skein modules. If M contains a separating 2–sphere, we give conditions under which certain relative skein modules of M vanish over specified localized rings.
