Raw Material for Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid Production

According to the Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid production include Sulfuric Acid-Hydrofluoric Acid.

Manufacturing Process of Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid

The extensive Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid production cost report consists of this major industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Concentrated Sulfuric Acid and Hydrofluoric Acid: The process is initiated by the chemical reaction of sulfuric acid with the aqueous solution of hydrofluoric acid, followed by heating the acquired solution, which ultimately results in the formation of anhydrous hydrofluoric acid.

Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid is a chemical compound comprising Hydrogen and fluorine without moisture content. It is removed by processing the chemical with sulfuric acid and heating it under a particular temperature to obtain anhydrous hydrochloric acid. It is a colorless chemical compound that is highly flammable and corrosive in nature. The chemical is usually transported in a fluid state under its own vapor pressure and reacts with metals and tissues while undergoing corrosion.

The chemical compound causes serious burns due to its acidic nature. It readily dissolves in water and forms a transparent solution. The mixture of Anhydrous Hydrofluoric Acid with water gives a hydrofluoric acid solution which is also acidic in nature. Its melting and boiling point measures around -83.6° C and 19.5° C, respectively. It has a slightly acidic characteristic odor, mostly pungent in nature, and is a highly toxic chemical compound. It acts as a catalyst in various chemical processes, and its density is measured at around 8.2 lb/gal.
