Product Description
Nitric Acid
Our company is a reckoned entity in this industry famous for manufacturing and processing Nitric Acid. The acid is known as aqua fortis and is highly strong mineral acid. Our offered Nitric Acid is soluble in water and alcohol, and is then used to reveal micro structure by etching of metals. This acid is also used for cleaning food and dairy equipments. We formulate this acid using high grade components and is highly acclaimed for its features like longer shelf life, high level of purity and accurate composition.
Further Details
The pure compound is colorless, but older samples tend to acquire a yellow cast due to the accumulation of oxides of Nitrogen
Nitric acid is normally considered to be a strong acid at ambient temperatures.
The corrosive effects of nitric acid are exploited for a number of specialty applications, such as pickling stainless steel.
A solution of nitric acid, water and alcohol, Nital, is used for etching of metals to reveal the micro structure
