Description :

Overview of Nitric Acid

Nitric Acid is a highly corrosive and strong inorganic acid widely used as a key raw material in chemical manufacturing, metallurgy, fertilizers, and industrial processing. It is typically available as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sharp, pungent odor. Due to its strong oxidizing nature and high reactivity, Nitric Acid plays a critical role in large-scale industrial and laboratory applications.

In industrial formulations, Nitric Acid is valued for its high purity, controlled concentration, and consistent performance. It is frequently used alongside Sulfuric Acid, Phosphoric Acid, and Ammonium Nitrate, available on ChemicalBull, providing complete solutions for chemical synthesis, fertilizers, and metal processing industries.

Applications of Nitric Acid

Fertilizer & Agrochemical Industry

• Primary raw material for manufacturing ammonium nitrate fertilizers

• Used in nitrogen-based agricultural chemicals

Chemical Manufacturing

• Used in the synthesis of dyes, explosives, intermediates, and specialty chemicals

• Acts as a nitrating and oxidizing agent

Metallurgy & Metal Processing
