Phosphoric Acid 85%

The CAS registry number for Phosphoric Acid 85% is 7664-38-2. Its chemical formula is H3PO4, with a molecular weight of 98 g/mol. Quote this number when requesting a quotation or checking documentation, as it identifies the substance unambiguously regardless of the trade name used.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is also referred to as Orthophosphoric acid, E338 and H3PO4. These names describe the same substance, so a specification or enquiry written against any of them can be matched to this product.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is supplied as Food grade. State the grade your process requires when requesting a quotation — where an alternative grade can be sourced, it is confirmed at quotation stage rather than assumed.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is supplied at a concentration of 85%. Concentration and assay are separate figures: the concentration describes the strength of the material as supplied, and the certificate of analysis issued for your consignment carries the measured values for that batch.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is described as colorless, odorless syrupy viscous liquid at 85% concentration. Appearance is a useful first check on receipt of goods, though it does not replace the certificate of analysis for confirming that the material meets specification.

Common applications include acidulant and pH regulator in food and beverages, precursor in phosphate fertilizer production, descaling, alkalinity neutralization in water treatment, rust removal and surface preparation in metal treatment and raw material in chemical synthesis and lab use. The suitability of the product for a particular process depends on the grade and specification required, which is worth confirming against your own process conditions.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is supplied to the Water Treatment, Food Processing & Beverage, Agriculture & Agrochemicals, Cleaning & Detergents and Laboratories & Research sectors. These are the industries this product is listed against in our catalogue; if your application falls outside them, we can advise on suitability before you order.

Available in packaging from 5 L to 250 kg drums. Where a different pack size or bulk delivery is required, it is confirmed at quotation stage against availability rather than listed here as standard.

Phosphoric Acid 85% is recorded against the EC number 231-633-2 and the HS customs code 2809201900. Quote this on customs and export paperwork; it is confirmed again on the commercial invoice for your specific consignment.
