Description
High-Purity Sulphuric Acid 25–98% | Multi-Purpose Industrial & Lab Acid
Premium AR / ACS / LAB Grade Sulphuric Acid for Chemical, Mining, and Laboratory Applications
Sulphuric Acid (CAS No. 7664-93-9) is a highly reactive, oily, colorless to slightly yellow liquid known for its powerful acidic, dehydrating, and oxidizing properties. Available in 25%, 90%, 95–97%, and 98% concentrations, this essential inorganic acid is offered in AR (Analytical Reagent), ACS (American Chemical Society), and LAB grades, making it suitable for a range of industrial, chemical, and laboratory uses.
It plays a critical role in battery production, pH regulation, chemical synthesis, fertilizer manufacturing, and ore processing. Its exothermic reaction with water makes it a potent component in dehydration and catalytic systems. Due to its high reactivity and corrosive nature, Sulphuric Acid must be handled with proper safety controls. For guidelines on safe chemical handling and industrial acid applications, refer to the CDC NIOSH Pocket Guide and PubChem Sulphuric Acid Database.
This acid is widely used in chemical manufacturing plants, metallurgical operations, wastewater treatment facilities, and research laboratories. For related acids and lab-grade reagents, explore our analytical-grade chemicals.
