Glass Microfiber Extraction Thimble, 28x120mm ID x Height, Borosilicate, 1.5mm Wall, 25/Pk SKU: LE-GT9-114

Featuring binderless borosilicate glass microfiber construction delivering exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability for demanding Soxhlet extraction applications. High-purity borosilicate glass microfibers manufactured from 100% pure borosilicate fibers totally free from binding elements ensure contamination-free processing of aggressive solvents and acidic compounds. Consistent 1.5mm wall thickness ensures precise extraction test results while hydrophobic surface chemistry optimizes solvent flow dynamics and sample recovery rates.

Key Glass Microfiber Membrane Characteristics

• Binderless construction completely free of binders or additives eliminates potential contamination sources during critical analytical procedures
• Superior thermal stability withstands continuous operation up to 500°C (932°F) for high-temperature extraction protocols
• Superior mechanical strength and retention ability maintains structural integrity during extended extraction cycles
• Seamless construction with smooth interior surface minimizes sample holdup and maximizes extraction efficiency
• Hydrophobic surface characteristics resist aqueous interference while promoting organic solvent compatibility

Key Construction Characteristics

• Consistent 1.5mm wall thickness throughout the thimble ensures uniform extraction performance and reproducible results
• 28mm internal diameter x 120mm height dimensions accommodate standard Soxhlet extraction apparatus configurations
• Ideal for soxhlet extractions requiring solvents too aggressive for cellulose thimbles including chlorinated and aromatic compounds
• High degree of air permeability optimizes solvent circulation and accelerates extraction kinetics
• Manufactured in cleanroom environment with quality control protocols ensuring batch-to-batch consistency

LE-GT9-114 thimbles deliver outstanding chemical compatibility with organic solvents incompatible with traditional cellulose media, maximizing your analytical versatility for lipid extraction, environmental contaminant analysis, and pharmaceutical compound isolation. Well-suited to pollution monitoring when analysis of hot and acidic gases is required, these thimbles transform aggressive analytical protocols into reliable, reproducible procedures. Applications include gravimetric methods for hot environments and acidic gases as well as extraction methods common to biochemical analysis, providing performance assurance for your most demanding Soxhlet extraction requirements with proven durability and extraction efficiency.
