Description
Extraction thimble made of cellulose with an inner diameter of 40 mm and a length of 100 mm is intended for solid–liquid extraction workflows in analytical and preparative laboratories. The seamless cellulose body provides a porous sample chamber that retains solids while allowing solvent to percolate during Soxhlet or related continuous-extraction procedures. Dimensions of Ø 40 × 100 mm (ID × length) match common extractor glassware sizes, supporting reproducible packing of plant materials, soils, polymers and other solid matrices. Supplied in packs of 25 pieces from manufacturer Hahnemühle, the thimbles suit routine fat, residue and environmental extraction methods where cellulose is the preferred thimble material. Consistent wall formation and defined internal diameter help maintain uniform solvent flow and sample retention across parallel extractions, simplifying method transfer between instruments and operators.
This article is part of Extraction thimbles, in Filtration.

Questions about Extraction thimble, cellulose ,Ø 40 x 100 mm (ID x length)
What is this article?
Extraction thimble, cellulose ,Ø 40 x 100 mm (ID x length) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Hahnemühle for laboratory use. It sits in Extraction thimbles, inside Filtration, in Lab consumables.
An extraction thimble holds a solid inside a Soxhlet or a similar extractor. Cellulose and glass fibre are the two materials. The internal diameter and the height have to match the extractor chamber. A thimble that is too tall blocks the siphon.
Filtration holds back what is larger than the pores and lets the rest through. Paper is the ordinary laboratory filter. A membrane has a stated pore size and a polymer that must survive the solvent. A syringe filter is that membrane in a housing on a syringe. Glass fibre takes a higher dirt load. Ultrafiltration holds back macromolecules and passes salts. The pore size, the chemical compatibility and the volume are the three choices. Laboratory apparatus around filtration is indexed under ISO laboratory apparatus.
