Hydrofluoric Acid, commonly known as HF, is a colorless inorganic acid with a sharp odor. Its 40% ultra-pure concentration is preferred for applications requiring high purity, including analytical chemistry, glass and silicate processing, and various industrial operations. Thanks to its high reactivity, it delivers effective performance in precise analytical procedures and provides reliable results when handled under controlled conditions.
Glass and silicate processing:
Used for glass etching and silicate dissolution applications.
Analytical laboratory work:
Suitable for highly sensitive analyses requiring exceptional purity.
Surface cleaning and metal processing:
Applied in industrial surface cleaning and metal treatment processes.
Preparation of organic and inorganic compounds:
Utilized in various chemical syntheses in laboratory environments.
H314: Causes severe skin burns and eye damage.
H300+H310+H330: Fatal if swallowed, in contact with skin or if inhaled.
P260: Do not breathe vapours or mist.
P280: Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection.
