Description

Sulphuric Acid 98% – Concentrated Acid for Industrial Applications

Sulphuric Acid 98%, chemically represented as H₂SO₄, is a highly concentrated inorganic acid supplied as a colourless to slightly yellowish, viscous liquid. It is odourless and exhibits strong corrosive and dehydrating properties. When mixed with water, it releases significant heat, requiring controlled handling.

This concentration is widely used in fertilizer manufacturing, chemical processing, petroleum refining, and metallurgical operations where high reactivity and reliability are essential.
