Hydrochloric Acid 50% – HCl | CAS 7647-01-0

Product Overview

This 50% v/v aqueous solution of hydrochloric acid is a high-strength mineral acid used in demanding chemical, industrial, and laboratory processes. It is a clear, colorless, highly corrosive liquid with strong fuming properties and a sharp, acrid odor. The elevated concentration delivers aggressive reactivity, making it suitable for heavy-duty acid cleaning, pH adjustment, metal pickling, and chloride synthesis. Proper safety precautions are essential when handling this solution due to its high acidity and vapor output.
