Cellulose Extraction Thimbles, 25 x 100mm, Hydrophilic, Nonsterile, 25/Pk
GVS SKU: ET25100CC0Q00

Featuring a high-alpha cellulose medium produced from cotton linters, these cylindrical extraction thimbles measure 25mm inner diameter by 100mm in height and provide reliable sample containment for solid-liquid extraction. The rounded-bottom design seats securely in Soxhlet and automated extraction apparatus, while the naturally hydrophilic cellulose wets rapidly and permits unrestricted solvent circulation. Each thimble withstands operating temperatures up to 120 degrees C and ships nonsterile in packs of 25.

Key Cellulose Media Characteristics

• Constructed from high-alpha cellulose cotton linters for consistent mechanical strength and retention.
• Naturally hydrophilic structure wets quickly and permeates solvent without pre-conditioning.
• Depth medium retains powdered, granular, and semi-solid sample materials while allowing free solvent flow.
• Withstands operating temperatures up to 120 degrees C through repeated solvent cycling.

Key Construction Characteristics

• Cylindrical body with a rounded closed bottom for direct sample loading and secure seating.
• Inner diameter of 25mm and height of 100mm to match common Soxhlet extractor dimensions.
• Supplied nonsterile, 25 thimbles per pack.

The dimensional stability of the cotton linter matrix maintains containment integrity throughout multi-hour extraction procedures. Rapid solvent wetting and consistent permeability support efficient recovery while protecting the integrity of downstream analytical determinations.
