Cellulose Extraction Thimbles, 23x100mm ID, 1.5mm Wall, High-Purity Soxhlet Compatible, 25/Pk SKU: LE-CT5-008

Featuring high-purity cellulose fiber construction delivering exceptional extraction performance for EPA-compliant Soxhlet extraction applications¹. Manufactured from high-quality cellulose for excellent mechanical strength and retention, these 23 × 100mm thimbles maintain consistent 1.5mm wall thickness throughout demanding extraction cycles. Uniform wall thickness affords even extraction from solids while hydrophilic surface chemistry optimizes solvent flow and sample contact during automated and manual Soxhlet operations.

Key Cellulose Membrane Characteristics

• High-quality alpha cellulose cotton linter construction provides trusted performance for automated Soxhlet extractor systems
• Hydrophilic surface chemistry ensures rapid wetting and complete solvent penetration for maximum extraction efficiency
• Nonsterile processing maintains cost-effectiveness while delivering analytical-grade purity for routine laboratory applications
• Maximum operating temperature of 120°C enables use with diverse organic solvents and elevated-temperature protocols
• Binderless construction eliminates potential contamination sources that could interfere with trace analysis results

Key Construction Characteristics

• Precise 23mm internal diameter × 100mm height dimensions provide optimal fit for standard Soxhlet extraction apparatus
• Consistent 1.5mm wall thickness delivers structural integrity during extended extraction cycles without sample breakthrough
• Cellulose fiber matrix allows controlled porosity for efficient solute migration while retaining solid particulates
• Universal compatibility with most Soxhlet extraction units enables versatile laboratory integration
• Pack of 25 thimbles ensures sufficient supply for batch processing and quality control protocols

LE-CT5-008 thimbles excel in diverse analytical applications including air and waste gas analysis, pesticide residue determination, and oil/fat content analysis of solid foods. Outstanding chemical compatibility with standard extraction solvents including methylene chloride, acetone, and hexane maximizes your method flexibility across environmental, food safety, and pharmaceutical testing protocols. EPA Method 3540C compliance¹ transforms these thimbles into validated extraction media, providing performance assurance for your critical solid-liquid extraction applications demanding both exceptional purity and reliable analytical reproducibility.
