Cellulose Extraction Thimbles, 33 x 80 mm, Single Wall, Round Bottom, 25/Pk
GVS SKU: ET33080CC0Q00

Featuring a high-alpha cellulose cotton linter medium, these extraction thimbles provide a clean, mechanically robust vessel for solid-liquid solvent extraction. Each thimble measures 33 mm inner diameter by 80 mm height in a seamless cylindrical form with a rounded bottom, holding solid and semi-solid samples while allowing solvent to pass through during extraction. The hydrophilic cellulose structure delivers strong sample retention and is rated for operating temperatures up to 120 degrees C, supporting use with common organic solvents.

Key Cellulose Media Characteristics

• Manufactured from high-alpha cellulose cotton linters for excellent mechanical strength and reliable particle retention.
• Hydrophilic structure that wets readily and supports consistent solvent flow through the sample bed.
• Smooth, seamless wall construction that minimizes background contamination and supports clean gravimetric results.
• Rated for operating temperatures up to 120 degrees C for compatibility with standard organic extraction solvents.
• Cylindrical body with a rounded bottom that secures the sample throughout extended extraction cycles.

Key Construction Characteristics

• 33 mm inner diameter by 80 mm height format sized to fit most Soxhlet and Tecator type extraction units.
• Single-wall cylindrical design with a rounded, closed bottom for secure sample containment.
• Nonsterile and supplied 25 thimbles per pack.

These thimbles deliver consistent, reproducible extraction performance across production lots while protecting sample integrity. The binder-free cellulose construction keeps extracts free of interfering contaminants, supporting accurate analytical results in gravimetric and residue workflows.
