Premium Industrial Descaler & Metal Cleaner | Chloride-Free & Biodegradable | ISO 9001 Certified
| Product Name | Glycolic Acid 70% Solution (Technical Grade) (Hydroxyacetic Acid | Alpha-Hydroxy Acid | AHA) |
| CAS NO. / EC NO. | 79-14-1 / 201-180-5 |
| Molecular Formula | C₂H₄O₃ (MW: 76.05 g/mol) |
| Chemical Structure |  |
| Technical Specifications |
|
| Primary Industrial Applications | ⚙️ Boiler & Heat Exchanger Descaling Removes calcium carbonate, magnesium silicate, and iron oxide scales from industrial boilers, cooling towers, and heat exchangers. 30x less corrosive than hydrochloric acid on stainless steel, reducing equipment damage and maintenance costs. Concrete & Masonry Cleaning Effectively dissolves hardened concrete from mixer trucks, construction tools, and brick surfaces. Safe alternative to muriatic acid (HCl) with no toxic fumes and minimal substrate damage. Dairy & Food Equipment CIP Removes milkstone (calcium phosphate) and protein deposits from stainless steel dairy tanks, evaporators, and pasteurizers. Food-contact safe when properly rinsed. NSF/ANSI 60 compliant for water treatment applications. ️ Oil & Gas Well Stimulation Used in acidizing treatments to dissolve carbonate formations and remove iron sulfide scales from production tubing. Stable at high temperatures (up to 150°C) and prevents iron precipitation with built-in sequestering properties. Electronics & Metal Finishing Component in PCB flux formulations for copper oxide removal. Used in electropolishing baths for stainless steel brightening and aluminum surface preparation. Low volatility ensures process consistency. Textile & Leather Processing pH adjuster in textile dyeing and leather tanning processes. Improves dye penetration and leather softness without chloride-induced corrosion on processing equipment. |
| Packaging & Logistics | Standard Packaging:
Storage Conditions: Store in a cool (above 10°C / 50°F), dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Product may crystallize below 10°C; warming and agitation will redissolve crystals. Shelf Life: 24 months from manufacturing date when stored properly in sealed original containers. |

Frequently Asked Questions Q: Is Glycolic Acid safe for stainless steel equipment? Yes. At typical use concentrations (10-30%), glycolic acid causes 30x less corrosion than hydrochloric acid on stainless steel 316. It's widely used in food-grade and pharmaceutical equipment cleaning. Q: What is the typical dilution ratio for boiler descaling? For routine maintenance: 15% glycolic acid solution (dilute 70% concentrate 1:5 to 1:7 with water). For heavy scale: up to 30% solution. Always test on a small area first. Q: Can I mix Glycolic Acid with other cleaning agents? It can be blended with other organic acids (citric, formic) to improve performance. Do NOT mix with strong alkalis (NaOH) or oxidizers (bleach) due to exothermic reactions. Q: What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)? For international orders: 1 IBC Tote (1,250 kg). For domestic China orders: 1 drum (250 kg). Bulk tanker available for large-scale users (20 MT minimum). Q: Do you provide Technical Data Sheets (TDS) and Safety Data Sheets (SDS)? Yes. Both documents are available for download below. We also provide application guides and formulation support for large customers. | |
