Contact Supplier nitric acid used in agriculture  nitric acid is a liquid with an acrid, pungent and suffocating odor. There are different concentrations of nitric acid hno3 available, and they are colorless, yellow or red accordingly. The industrial grade is about 68% in water, commercial grade is between 52% and 68%, fuming nitric acid is 86% or higher, while concentrations above 95% are called white fuming or red fuming nitric acid.  nitric acid ionizes readily in solution, forming a good conductor of electricity. It reacts with metals, oxides, and hydroxides, forming nitrate salts. The scope of nitric acid hno3 applications is the fertilizers production, preservation of drip irrigation systems, and the use on the food industry as powerful disinfectant on the changes of production processes, avoiding blend of flavors and guaranteeing hygiene on the food processing industry. 1.general information   molecular formula: hno3 molecular weight: 63.0128 cas no.: 7697-37-2 ec no.: 231-714-2 2.applications widely used in the manufacture of ammonium nitrate and other explosives, sodium nitrate potassium nitrate, calcium nitrate, glyoxal, h-acid, nitrobenzene and other nitro derivative dyes and dye intermediates, drugs and pharmaceuticals, pickling of steel and metallurgy.
