Usage/Application:

Leather Processing, Household Cleaning and Building Construction.

Key Benefits:

Hydrochloric acid can be used to regulate the acidity (pH) of solutions. In industry demanding purity (food, pharmaceutical, drinking water), high-quality hydrochloric acid is used to control the pH of process water streams.
