Featuring 100% pure borosilicate glass microfiber technology delivering exceptional thermal stability and chemical resistance for demanding Soxhlet extraction protocols. Manufactured from 100% pure borosilicate glass binderless microfibers, these precision-engineered thimbles maintain structural integrity through extreme temperature cycling while providing contamination-free sample processing. Consistent wall thickness provides superior mechanical strength and retention, capable of withstanding the rigors of Soxhlet extraction, even in hot environments or with acidic gases. The seamless 1.5mm wall construction delivers optimal solvent flow dynamics while eliminating potential failure points during extended extraction cycles.
Key Borosilicate Glass Microfiber Characteristics
- Binderless construction eliminates organic contamination that could interfere with analytical results
- High purity borosilicate glass fibers completely free of binders or additives ensure ultra-clean extraction protocols
- Chemically resistant with low thermal expansion coefficient for use at relatively high temperatures
- Temperature resistance up to 500°C (932°F) accommodates high-temperature extraction methods
- Hydrophobic surface chemistry resists moisture interference during solvent-based extractions
Key Construction Characteristics
- Precision 25x100mm (ID x Height) dimensions provide optimal capacity for standard Soxhlet extractors
- Seamless construction with consistent 1.5mm wall thickness ensures uniform solvent flow and mechanical reliability
- Smooth interior surface minimizes sample adherence and facilitates complete extraction efficiency
- Designed to fit most commercially available Soxhlet extractors for universal compatibility
- Effective when used with solvents incompatible with cellulose materials expanding analytical flexibility
LE-GT9-108 thimbles deliver outstanding performance for applications including analysis of hot and acidic gases, analysis of pesticide residues, determination of oil/fat content of foods, and analysis of oil and grease in solid wastes. Superior thermal shock resistance enables rapid temperature transitions without structural compromise, accelerating your extraction workflows while maintaining analytical precision. Applications include Soxhlet extraction, air and waste gas analysis, collection of solid particles such as dust, smoke stack gas monitoring, transforming these thimbles into versatile analytical tools for environmental, food safety, and industrial monitoring applications demanding both chemical compatibility and thermal durability.
