Chemical Profile

Product Overview

50% Vinegar, chemically known as concentrated acetic acid, is a clear, colorless liquid formulated for demanding industrial applications. This Industrial Grade solution delivers a consistent 50 wt% concentration of Acetic Acid (CH₃COOH), providing the acidity and reactivity required for precise pH adjustment, chemical manufacturing, and heavy-duty cleaning. Unlike standard consumer-grade vinegars, this industrial-strength product offers tighter assay ranges and controlled impurity levels.

Designed for professional use, this solution demonstrates a specific gravity of approximately 1.052 and excellent water miscibility, making it a versatile agent for neutralization and extraction workflows. With strict controls on residuals and trace metals (such as chlorides, sulfates, and heavy metals), it ensures compatibility with sensitive downstream processes. Whether used for descaling industrial equipment, adjusting alkalinity in water treatment, or as a raw material in chemical synthesis, 50% Vinegar provides reliable, reproducible performance.

Common Industrial Applications

pH Adjustment & Water Treatment: Used to lower pH levels in wastewater and process water, offering precise acidity control and neutralization of alkaline streams.
Industrial Cleaning & Descaling: A powerful agent for removing mineral deposits, scale, and oxidation from industrial machinery and surfaces.
Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a vital reactant and solvent in the production of organic compounds, esters, and chemical intermediates.
Textile & Leather Processing: utilized in dyeing processes and surface preparation where controlled acidity is essential.
Solvent Extraction: Acts as an effective solvent in various extraction processes due to its polarity and miscibility.

Safety & Handling

Warning: This is a concentrated, corrosive acid solution (Class 8). It is significantly stronger than household vinegar and requires professional handling.

Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from strong oxidizers and sources of ignition. Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, splash goggles, face shields, and acid-resistant clothing. Ensure access to an eye wash station and safety shower.
