Glass Microfiber Extraction Thimble, 35x115mm ID/H, Borosilicate, 1.5mm Wall, Soxhlet, 25/Pk SKU: LE-GT9-128

Featuring binderless borosilicate glass microfiber construction delivering exceptional chemical resistance and thermal stability for demanding Soxhlet extraction applications. Pure borosilicate glass binderless microfibers provide superior mechanical strength while maintaining seamless 1.5mm wall thickness throughout the 35mm internal diameter x 115mm height configuration. Well-suited to pollution monitoring when analysis of hot and acidic gases is required, these thimbles deliver reliable performance in gravimetric analysis and biochemical extraction protocols requiring aggressive solvents incompatible with cellulose alternatives.

Key Glass Microfiber Construction Characteristics

• 100% pure borosilicate glass binderless microfibers eliminate contamination while providing exceptional chemical inertness across pH ranges
• Seamless and consistent 1.5mm wall thickness with smooth interior surface ensures uniform extraction flow patterns and sample integrity
• Superior mechanical strength and retention withstands thermal cycling and mechanical stress during automated extraction procedures
• Temperature stability up to 500°C enables processing of high-temperature samples and thermal extraction protocols
• Hydrophobic surface chemistry resists moisture interference while maintaining optimal solvent wetting characteristics

Key Performance Characteristics

• 35mm internal diameter x 115mm height dimensions accommodate standard Soxhlet apparatus configurations and sample volumes
• High degree of air permeability optimizes extraction efficiency while preventing sample channeling or bypass
• Minimal content of extractable substances ensures low blank values for trace analysis and quantitative determinations
• Compatible with solvents that are incompatible with cellulose thimbles including aggressive organic solvents and acidic media
• All-glass construction allows visual examination during extraction and subsequent weighing for process monitoring and validation

LE-GT9-128 thimbles achieve outstanding chemical compatibility with aggressive extraction solvents while maintaining structural integrity throughout extended processing cycles. Available in a variety of dimensions to fit most Soxhlet extraction units, these thimbles maximize your analytical flexibility when processing environmental samples, pharmaceutical compounds, and industrial materials requiring validated extraction protocols. Common applications include gravimetric methods for hot environments and acidic gases as well as extraction methods common to biochemical analysis, delivering the reliability and precision your laboratory demands for both routine analysis and critical research applications.
