85% Phosphoric Acid 1L-Food
Grade Orthophosphoric Additive Aqueous Solution
Phosphoric
acid is best known as a rust remover. When the solution in liquid is placed
directly on rusted areas of steel, steel tools or steel surfaces, the rust is
converted from the red oxide to a black ferric phosphate. After the rust has
been converted to black ferric phosphate it can easily be scrubbed off.
Industrially,
phosphoric acid may be used in fertilizers, detergents, pharmaceuticals, water
treatment, food additive and cleaning products.
