ReAgent manufactures and supplies a wide range of hydrochloric acid HCl, from very dilute solutions to concentrated forms. Above is a selection of some of the types of Hydrochloric Acid we supply, but our offering is by no means limited to what you see here.

Hydrochloric Acid is also known as HCl, muratic acid, chlorohydric acid, marine acid, spirit of salt. When stored at room temperature, dilute hydrochloric acid is colourless, whilst more concentrate solutions are light yellow. Due to its strong acidity, common uses for this product include dissolving metals and adjusting pH values. Hydrochloric acid is created by dissolving hydrogen chloride gas in water. It is a by-product of chlorine manufacture, along with sodium hypochlorite and sodium hydroxide. When mixed with nitric acid, aqua regia is formed, which is capable of dissolving platinum and gold. ReAgent can also supply sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, nitric acid and pre-mixed aqua regia.

As with all acids, including HCl, it is essential to handle hydrochloric acid in a safe manner, with all relevant PPE specified in the Material Safety Data Sheet. This is of particular importance when handling concentrated hydrochloric acid which can be highly corrosive and produce dangerous fumes – local fume extraction is essential. In a mild concentration hydrochloric acid can still be irritant and must only ever be handled by suitably qualified persons.

ReAgent can provide many different strengths and grades of hydrochloric acid, from a few hundred millilitres up to 1000L Intermediate Bulk Containers of HCl. Our catalogue contains a selection, but it is by no means a definitive list of what we are able to supply, so if what you require is not listed please do get in touch and we can provide you with prices and technical advice.
