The Different Between Extraction Thimbles And Filter Bag

HAWACH extraction thimbles are known for their purity and consistent high quality. We provide a variety of high performing extraction thimbles in various dimensions as well as wall thicknesses. HAWACH offers an extensive range of sizes. The all-in-one design provides excellent mechanical strength and stiffness to ensure that the sample is retained in the thimble throughout the extraction process.

Soxhlet extractors provide a safe method of extraction using toxic or other toxic solvents. It is recommended to use HAWACH extraction thimbles to estimate fats in foods, to analyze paints and adhesives in paints, to extract vitamin A and carotene, and to extract organic compounds from reactive mixtures, which has been found to be satisfactory in applications requiring single or double wall thickness.

Classification
There are two kinds of extraction thimbles at HAWACH, based on the material, cellulose, and glass microfiber thimbles. The cellulose extraction thimble is made of high-quality cellulose cotton fleece with excellent mechanical strength and retention. These thimbles are used in Soxhlet extraction units providing a safe, convenient and efficient method of solvent extraction of solids and semi-solids. Soxhlet extraction is a technique widely used to analyze fats or pesticides in food and soil materials.

The borosilicate glass fiber extraction thimbles are produced for special applications, which can be used at temperatures up to 600°C or with solvents that are not compatible with the cellulose thimble. Its applications include a gravimetric method for high temperature environment, gravimetric method for acidic gas and extraction method commonly used for biochemical analysis, etc.
