Overview

Nitric Acid is a highly corrosive and reactive mineral acid, critical in various industrial processes. Its primary uses include the production of fertilizers, explosives, and chemical intermediates. As a strong oxidizing agent, Nitric Acid plays a pivotal role in etching and cleaning metals, as well as in the production of nitro compounds and nitration reactions for pharmaceuticals and dyes.

Due to its high reactivity, Nitric Acid is also used in laboratory analysis and waste treatment applications, where it helps neutralize contaminants and break down organic materials. It is available in varying concentrations to suit specific industrial needs.
