Its key uses include metal processing, fertilizer production, and the synthesis of explosives and pharmaceuticals. Here\u2019s a more detailed breakdown: Metal Processing: Dissolving and Refining Precious Metals: It is used to dissolve and refine precious metals like silver and gold, aiding in their purification. Pickling and Passivation of Stainless Steel: It can be used to remove surface oxides and impurities from stainless steel, preparing it for further processing or preventing corrosion. Metal Etching: It is used in the electronics industry for etching metal components on printed circuit boards, allowing for precise designs. Surface Treatment of Metals: It can be used to treat metal surfaces, improving their adhesion properties or creating a protective layer. Metal Cleaning: It is is a powerful cleaning agent for industrial equipment, removing rust, scale, and other contaminants. Fertilizer Production: Production of Ammonium Nitrate: A major component in fertilizers, ammonium nitrate, is produced using nitric acid. Synthesis of Calcium Nitrate and Other Nitrate-Based Fertilizers: Nitric acid is a key ingredient in the production of various nitrate-based fertilizers. Chemical Synthesis: Industrial Chemical Synthesis: Nitric acid is used in the production of various organic and inorganic chemicals, including nitro compounds for explosives and pharmaceuticals. Laboratory Analysis and Research: It is used in chemical experiments and analysis to form salts, synthesize nitrates, and oxidize organic compounds. Mineral Processing and Extraction: It plays a role in the processing and extraction of minerals, particularly in gold and other precious metal purification processes. Other Uses: Explosives: It is used in the production of some explosives, such as nitroglycerin and TNT. Histology: In histology, It is used to remove mineralized tissue components, forming a starting solution for decalcification. Furniture Coating: While not a primary use, nitric acid can be applied to wood furniture to create a protective layer against moisture damage and for artificial aging.<br \/>\nLead Time: Standard Lead time: 3 &#8211; 4 working days. Imports: 4 &#8211; 6 Weeks. Dangerous Chemicals: Please note that an affidavit is required for the purpose of dangerous chemicals, clearly stating the intended use of the chemical.<br \/>\n\u2022 weight: 25 kg<br \/>\n\u2022 dimensions: 35 \u00d7 35 \u00d7 70 cm<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Used in metal processing<br \/>\n\u2022 Used in fertilizer production<br \/>\n\u2022 Used in chemical synthesis<br \/>\n\u2022 Used in laboratory analysis and research<br \/>\n\u2022 Used in mineral processing and extraction<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nitric Acid 65% 25L It is used in various industrial processes and laboratory applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":78135,"template":"","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}}},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[40264],"product_tag":[13671],"class_list":["post-78118","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-acid","product_tag-nitric-acid-65-25l","desktop-align-center","tablet-align-center","mobile-align-center","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/78118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/78135"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=78118"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=78118"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=78118"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/medqmedicalsuppliers.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=78118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
