Extraction Thimbles for Soxhlet and Solvent Extraction
Extraction thimbles are used where laboratories need to extract components from solid materials using suitable solvents. The visible category range includes super refined cellulose extraction thimbles in multiple sizes, including Ø 19 x 90 mm, Ø 22 x 80 mm, Ø 22 x 100 mm, Ø 25 x 60 mm, Ø 25 x 70 mm, Ø 30 x 80 mm, Ø 33 x 60 mm, Ø 33 x 80 mm and Ø 33 x 90 mm formats, commonly supplied in packs of 25.
- Soxhlet extraction support: Use cellulose thimbles to hold solid samples during repeated solvent washing and extraction cycles.
- Tecator-type compatibility: Select suitable thimble dimensions for Tecator-type or similar extraction devices used in routine analysis.
- Super refined cellulose: Choose high-purity cellulose thimbles where low extractables and consistent extraction performance are important.
- Size matching: Confirm diameter and length against the extractor body, sample mass, solvent volume and method requirements before ordering.
Choosing Extraction Thimbles for Laboratory Workflows
Technical buyers should confirm thimble diameter, length, material, pack size, sample load, solvent compatibility, extractor compatibility and whether the workflow requires food, feed, environmental or industrial sample extraction. For related procurement, teams may also review Industrial Filtering and Purification, Laboratory Glassware and Laboratory Supplies and Fixtures.
Applications Across Food, Feed and Environmental Testing
Extraction thimbles are selected where sample containment and consistent solvent contact are important for reliable extraction results.
- Food and feed analysis: Support fat, oil and component extraction from solid food, feed and agricultural samples within Food and Feed workflows.
- Environmental monitoring: Prepare soil, sediment and other environmental materials for solvent-based extraction and downstream analysis.
- Quality control laboratories: Use extraction thimbles for repeat analytical methods where sample preparation consistency is important.
- Research and teaching laboratories: Maintain common cellulose thimble sizes for Soxhlet demonstrations, method development and routine extraction work.
