Product Details

Perchloric Acid 70% AR is a high – purity, clear, and colorless analytical reagent – grade liquid. As a powerful oxidizer and strong acid, it is widely utilized in laboratory chemical analysis,digestions, and specialized industrial or profesional applications. Due to its highly corrosive nature and potential explosion hazard when heated or mixed with organic and combustible materials, it requires strict safety protocols, specialized storage, and appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during handling.

  • Laboratory Analysis:
    Sample preparation, dissolving organic materials for trace metal testing, and non – aqueous titrations.
  • Metal Treatment:
    Electropolishing and chemical etching of metals like stainless steel and aluminum.
  • Chemical Manufacturing:
    Serving as a catalyst or precursor in organic chemical synthesis.
