Hydrofluoric Acid (HF)

Hydrofluoric acid is an aqueous solution of hydrogen fluoride used as a strong fluorinating and etching agent. It is highly corrosive to tissue and glass; handling follows dedicated HF protocols rather than general acid practice.

Industry Applications

Alkylation catalysis, fluorochemicals, metal pickling, glass etching, and electronics cleaning. Concentration and inhibitor package are specified at inquiry.
