Nitric Acid 55% AR 25L
Nitric Acid 55% AR (Analytical Reagent grade) is used for high-purity applications like analytical chemistry (ICP, AAS, spectroscopy), sample preparation (digesting samples), cleaning lab glassware, metal treatment/etching (removing impurities), and as a strong oxidizing agent in synthesizing various chemicals, dyes, and pharmaceuticals, requiring strict safety due to its corrosive nature.
Nitric Acid 55% AR 25L
Key Uses
Analytical & Research Labs: Ideal for precise measurements, trace metal analysis, and as a mobile phase or reagent in chromatography.
Sample Preparation: Used to dissolve or digest organic and inorganic samples for analysis.
Metal Processing: Etching, pickling, and cleaning stainless steel and other metals to remove rust or impurities.
Chemical Synthesis: Key in creating nitro compounds, dyes, pigments, explosives (in higher concentrations/forms), and pharmaceuticals.
Oxidizing Agent: Acts as a powerful oxidizer in various chemical reactions.
Why “AR Grade” Matters
High Purity: “AR” (Analytical Reagent) signifies high purity, essential for sensitive analytical work where impurities would interfere.
Specific Concentration: 55% is a common concentration, but its specific use depends on the required strength for the reaction or process.
Safety Considerations
Highly Corrosive: Causes severe burns and irritation; avoid skin/eye contact and inhalation.
Protective Gear: Requires full chemical suits, gloves, and respiratory protection (full-face respirator with appropriate cartridges).
Storage: Store in cool, well-ventilated, locked areas, away from heat, combustibles, and incompatible materials like metals.
