Nitric Acid 69% (Concentrated) – CAS 7697-37-2
Product Overview
Concentrated nitric acid (69% w/w) is a powerful, highly corrosive mineral acid and potent oxidizing agent. Its chemical structure consists of nitrogen bonded to a hydroxy group and equivalently bonded to two oxygen atoms, making it highly reactive in nitration and oxidation reactions. Widely used in industrial and laboratory settings, concentrated nitric acid plays an essential role in chemical manufacturing, metallurgy, and analytical procedures. Due to its aggressive nature, stringent safety measures including proper ventilation, protective gear, and careful handling are required to minimize the risk of chemical burns and toxic fume inhalation.
