Description
Extraction thimbles made of cellulose with an inner diameter of 37 mm, an outer diameter of 42 mm and a height of 130 mm are intended for laboratory extraction where a larger sample bed is required. Fabricated from pure cotton cellulose, they remain neutral and free of fats and binders that could introduce sample contamination. The pore diameter of 5–7 µm enables efficient solvent exchange while retaining particulate material during Soxhlet and similar extraction protocols. Available in packs of 25 pieces from manufacturer Labbox, they suit high-throughput preparation of environmental, food and chemical samples. The 37 mm inner and 42 mm outer diameters fit corresponding extractor glassware, and the 130 mm height provides ample capacity for solid matrices. Cellulose construction delivers dependable mechanical behaviour under standard solvent contact. Precise sizing supports reproducible seating and solvent flow. Net weight of the pack is 0,550 kg. These cellulose extraction thimbles give laboratories a clean, binder-free consumable with defined porosity for consistent extraction performance across routine analytical workflows.

Questions about Thimbles for Soxhlet extractors, Øint 37 mm, Øext 42 mm, h 130 mm, 25 pcs
What is this article?
Thimbles for Soxhlet extractors, Øint 37 mm, Øext 42 mm, h 130 mm, 25 pcs is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Labbox 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.
