The world’s largest commodity chemical by volume, the primary industrial application for sulphuric acid is in the production of phosphate fertilisers and phosphoric acid.
It is also used in the manufacture of hundreds of compounds, including other acids (like hydrochloric and nitric acid) and as a reagent in production of detergents, dyes, pigments, pharmaceuticals and other chemical intermediates.
Our on-site dilution plant allows us to offer custom strengths of sulphuric acid. Some of our most popularly-requested dilutions include 96%, 77%, 35%, 30%, 28% and 20%.
