Hydrochloric Acid Or Cement Remover Or Muriatic Acid in Curacao Port - Cleaning Supplies

Hydrochloric acid, also known as muriatic acid, is a strong chemical used in cleaning supplies to remove tough stains, rust, and mineral deposits.

Cement removers often contain hydrochloric acid to dissolve and clean hardened concrete, mortar, or grime from surfaces.

It is highly corrosive and requires proper safety precautions, such as gloves and ventilation, during use.

Hydrochloric Acid (Muriatic Acid/Cement Remover):

Size: Typically available in 1-gallon, 5-gallon, and 55-gallon containers.

Grade: Industrial grade (20-32% HCl concentration) or technical grade (lower concentrations for cleaning).

Viscosity: Low viscosity, similar to water (1-2 cP at 20°C).

Buoyancy: Slightly denser than water (1.18 g/cm³ at 30% concentration).

Material: Aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride (HCl) in water, often with inhibitors to reduce corrosion.

Appearance: Clear, colorless to slightly yellow liquid with a pungent odor.

pH: Highly acidic (pH ~1 at 30% concentration).

Boiling Point: ~110°C (30% solution).

Freezing Point: ~-46°C (30% solution).

Solubility: Fully miscible in water.

Reactivity: Corrosive to metals, reacts with bases and carbonates.
