High-Purity Cellulose Extraction Thimble, 48x145mm ID, 2.0mm Wall, 120°C, 25/Pk SKU: LE-CT5-033

Featuring high-purity cellulose fiber construction delivering exceptional extraction performance for Soxhlet apparatus applications. The 48mm internal diameter and 145mm height configuration accommodates large sample volumes while maintaining consistent 2.0mm wall thickness for optimal structural integrity. Manufactured from high-quality alpha cellulose cotton linter providing superior mechanical strength and retention characteristics essential for demanding analytical protocols including environmental monitoring, food analysis, and chemical extraction procedures.

Key Cellulose Fiber Membrane Characteristics

• High-purity cellulose construction eliminates contaminant interference and ensures sample integrity during extraction cycles
• Maximum operating temperature of 120°C withstands standard Soxhlet reflux conditions without degradation or dimensional change
• Hydrophilic surface chemistry promotes efficient solvent penetration and optimal extraction kinetics for polar and non-polar compounds
• Binderless fiber matrix minimizes extractable substances that could compromise analytical results in trace-level determinations
• Consistent porosity throughout the thimble wall ensures uniform sample contact and complete extraction of target analytes

Key Construction Characteristics

• Precision-formed 48mm x 145mm dimensions provide compatibility with standard large-volume Soxhlet extraction units
• Uniform 2.0mm wall thickness delivers mechanical stability during extended extraction cycles while preventing sample breakthrough
• Seamless cylindrical construction with reinforced bottom eliminates weak points that could cause sample loss during processing
• Non-sterile configuration optimized for analytical applications where biological contamination is not a concern
• Pack of 25 thimbles ensures consistent supply availability for high-throughput laboratory operations

LE-CT5-033 thimbles excel in diverse analytical applications including analysis of pesticide residues, determination of oil/fat content of foods, and analysis of oil and grease in solid wastes. Outstanding chemical compatibility with most organic solvents maximizes your analytical flexibility when extracting lipids from food matrices, determining moisture content in building materials, or isolating organic compounds from environmental samples. Designed to fit most Soxhlet extraction units enabling seamless integration with existing laboratory equipment while delivering the reliable performance demanded by quality control, research, and regulatory compliance testing protocols.
