This chemical compound is categorized as an inorganic acid with a very low pH, which requires precaution before using it as well as safe handling; Ideally, it should be physically stored away from materials such as water, organic materials, metals, amines, bases, and excess heat, since it can generate undesirable reactions.
Sulfuric Acid 93% (92-94%) Solution, Lab Grade, is an exceptionally acidic chemical compound with a low pH. Therefore, one of the primary uses in the chemical industry is the creation of other essential acids, such as hydrochloric acid and nitric acid, as well as creating detergents, pigments and dyes, sulfate salts, and processing of metals.
Sulfuric Acid 93% (92-94%) Solution, Lab Grade, is classified as highly corrosive, and it might cause skin burns and eye damage if not used with precaution.
Sulfuric Acid 93% Solution, Lab Grade is an inorganic acid with CAS 7664-93-9 and an assay of 92% to 94%. It’s a strong, highly corrosive acid with a very low pH, and it can burn skin and damage eyes if you don’t handle it with care. Keep it away from water, organic materials, metals, amines, bases and excess heat, since those can set off unwanted reactions. This is Lab Grade, so it fits general laboratory, educational and quality analysis work. The product page includes the Safety Data Sheet, the Technical Data Sheet and Certificates of Analysis. You’ll also find allergen, BPA, non irradiation, paraben, PFAS/PFOS free, phthalates and TSE/BSE statements in the Product Manuals.
Most people reach for sulfuric acid to make other acids, process metals or produce detergents, pigments, dyes and sulfate salts. The trouble starts when your supplier can’t ship hazmat or the right size, or when the paperwork isn’t there as soon as your team asks for it. We built around that. The SDS and Certificates of Analysis are available online, sizes run from 500ml bottles up to 55 gallon drums, and we handle hazmat from start to finish. Choose the size that fits your work, set up Autoship so you don’t run short, or request a quote for bulk volume. Request a quote today and we’ll keep it on budget, on time, every time.
