Overview

Product information

Phosphoric acid is an inorganic phosphorus oxoacid used as a chemical intermediate and acidulant in industrial processing. Commercial material is commonly supplied as an aqueous solution, including approximately 85% grades, rather than as the pure crystalline substance.

Documented applications include fertilizer manufacture, detergent and chemical production, metal-treatment processes and food processing when an appropriate regulated grade is used. The supplied inventory states “85% Tech / Food.” Hamara should confirm that both technical and food-compliant products are actually available and retain the supporting regulatory documentation before making a food-grade claim.
