 JSP NITRIC ACID 69.8% 16oz. Bottle (500 ml)

Nitric acid is a strongly corrosive mineral acid with a suffocating odor. It appears as a colorless liquid at room temperature but can appear yellow upon decomposition into oxides of nitrogen and water.
Our Lab/Technical grade Nitric Acid (69.8%) can be used in commercial applications and research labs, but due to its unknown impurities, it cannot be used in food items, drugs, and medicines.

It is considered the strongest acid due to its low pH and highly reducing nature.

These are ACS Regent grade acids typically used for making Aqua regia. 

Directions for making Aqua Regia:

PLACE YOUR GOLD IN A BREAKER WITH THE HYDROCHLORIC ACID 
SLOWY ADD NITRIC ACID
STOP ADDING THE NITRIC WHEN YOUR REACTION STOPS

Brand New Sealed 

Patented Polymer, Acid-Resistant, DOT-Approved Break-proof Safety Bottle

SHIPPED IN SAFE AND LEGAL PACKAGING IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE FEDERAL D.O.T. AND STATE LAWS AND CARRIER REQUIREMENTS. THESE ARE NOT ORDINARY HDPE BOTTLES

WHICH BREAK DOWN IN CONTACT WITH CONCENTRATED NITRIC ACID!

Here's why:  Glass is DANGEROUS. Our new patented, acid-resistant polymer bottles are SAFE Breaking or leakage in transit is now IMPOSSIBLE with these new bottles. A full bottle can be dropped from 15 feet directly onto concrete, and it won't break, crack, or leak. Try that with glass! 

Non reactive polymer won't leach heavy metals into the acid.  Polymer bottles themselves cost more but COST FAR LESS TO PACKAGE. Ordinary HDPE is NOT DOT-approved because it is unsuitable and unsafe for concentrated nitric acid. Common HDPE turns yellow, becomes brittle, and can leak or break without warning.

HANDLING & SAFETY Nitric Acid is an extremely strong acid and oxidizer. An oxidizer contributes oxygen to reactions, which can result in fire or explosion. Nitric Acid reacts vigorously or violently with water and many flammable materials, including organic solvents, bases, reducing agents, metals and metal compounds.

AVOID INHALATION: Nitric Acid fumes are irritating to the throat and lungs. Do not inhale fumes. Inhalation of highly concentrated vapor must be reported immediately. Delaying treatment can result in pulmonary edema and death. Do not open indoors except under a fume hood. Use a Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus (SCBA) at all times when working with Nitric Acid.

HANDLE WITH CARE: Use extreme care when pouring Nitric Acid to avoid splashes or spills. Have an abundant water supply available to dilute spills. Cover open containers of Nitric Acid with a cap, plug, or watch glass to avoid fumes. Work under a fume hood when working with Nitric Acid. Replace cap immediately to avoid spills. When diluting concentrated acids like Nitric Acid, always add the acid to water slowly.

DO NOT ADD WATER TO CONCENTRATED ACID. 

AVOID SKIN CONTACT: Nitric Acid can severely burn the eyes and skin. Wear protective gloves resistant to Nitric Acid. Wear an impervious apron or smock and long sleeves.

USE EYE PROTECTION: Wear eye protection, such as polyethylene goggles and a polyethylene face shield to protect from splashing.

STORAGE: Store Nitric Acid in the original container. Dilute solutions must be stored in acid-resistant bottles, such as borosilicate bottles with Teflon caps. Polyethylene (PTFE, LDPE) and even HDPE are unsuitable for storing Nitric Acid. DO NOT store Nitric Acid near incompatible materials. These include acetic, chromic, and hydrocyanic acids, acetone, aniline, carbon, hydrogen sulfide, flammable materials, readily nitrated substances, organic solvents, bases, reducing agents, & metals and metal compounds.

Store Nitric Acid in its own storage cabinet near floor level when possible. Otherwise, Nitric Acid may be stored with other inorganic acids if segregated from other acids in a secondary containment vessel, such as a plastic bin, tub, or tote. 

Storage Temperature: < 75ºF. 

DISPOSAL & SPILLS: This material and its container must be disposed of as hazardous waste. If less than a few milliliters of concentrated acid or a few hundred milliliters of dilute acid is spilled, the spill can be neutralized by adding soda ash or sodium bicarbonate and rinsing profusely with water. If the spill is large (i.e., greater than 1 liter of concentrated acid, or more than you have materials to handle), immediately evacuate the laboratory, close the doors, and promptly call 9-1-1.

FIRST AID In case of accident, if you feel unwell seek medical advice immediately. 

24 Hour Emergency: Chemtrec 8004249300

Inhalation - Immediately move outside and get fresh air. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Immediately call a poison control center or medical doctor for treatment advice.
