Hydrochloric acid 

Hydrochloric acid is one of Wibax’ 150 products. One of the most commonly used inorganic acids in the industry, largely due to its strong acidity and reactivity.

Hydrochloric acid, or hydrogen chloride, is an aqueous solution of the gas hydrogen chloride. The product is widely used in the metal industry for pickling metals and in the chemical industry for acidification, dissolution, and neutralisation reactions.

Hydrochloric acid is also used for the treatment and production of dyes and synthetic rubber, as well as for pH regulation in the sugar industry.
