SULPHURIC ACID 98% 25kg
Sulphuric acid is a strong corrosive mineral acid with molecular formula H2SO4.
Sulphuric acid is and important reagent in a large number of processes.
Among the many uses, some of the major applications are as below
Catalyst and dehydrating agent in many organic chemical manufacturing and petrochemical processes.
In the manufacturing of detergents
In the manufacturing of titanium dioxide ( a widely used white pigment ), and other dyes and pigments.
In the manufacturing of fertilizers mainly phosphates but also zinc, ammonium and potassium sulphates
In the manufacturing process for a range of plastics.
Metal processing such as pickling and de-scaling of steel, and non-ferrous metal plating and purification.
It is also used in wastewater treatment processing, and chemical synthesis.
