PERSONAL SAFETY
Health hazards can be avoided by the use of
breathing equipment and skin protection. If a high
degree of personal safety is to be ensured, we
strongly recommend that the following measures
be regarded as compulsory. For personal safety,
a face mask (equipped with breathing apparatus)
must always
be worn in connection with pickling. This mask
must be equipped with a type B .breathing filter
and a type P2 dust filterPickling acids are
aggressive and, on contact, can burn the skin.
This can be avoided by protecting all exposed
skin with acid-resistant clothing.
STORAGE
Pickling chemical containers must be stored
indoors at 10 – 35°C. They must be kept in an
upright position with the lids tightly closed. The
storage area must be clearly defined and
inaccessible for unauthorised persons. goods.
They give the best pickling results when they are
fresh. This means that they
must not be kept on the shelf longer than
necessary. It is better to buy small amounts
frequently rather than large amounts occasionally.
SAFETY RULES
Pickling products are hazardous substances and must be handled with
care. Certain rules must be followed to ensure that the working
environment is good and safe:
1. Pickling chemicals must only be handled by persons with a sound
knowledge of the health hazards associated with such chemicals. This
means that the material safety data sheet (SDS) and the product label
must be thoroughly studied before the chemicals are used.
2. Eating, smoking and drinking must be forbidden in the pickling area.
3. Employees handling pickling chemicals must wash their hands and
faces before eating and after finishing work.
4. All parts of the skin that are exposed to splashing must be protected
by an acid-resistant material such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene
(PP) or polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This means that employees handling
pickling chemicals (including during rinsing) must wear protective
clothing as stipulated in the SDS for the product in question.
5. The pickling area must be ventilated.
6. To avoid unnecessary evaporation, the containers/jars must be kept
closed.
7. To minimise the environmental impact, all pickling residues must be
neutralised and all heavy metals separated from the proc
SS Pickling Solution B is a highly specialized acidic treatment solution used in pharmaceutical and analytical laboratories for cleaning, descaling, and passivating stainless steel equipment, pipelines, and process vessels to restore surface integrity and corrosion resistance.
🏭⚗️ Production
Prepared by controlled blending of high-purity inorganic acids and corrosion inhibitors under strict quality and safety standards. The formulation typically contains nitric acid and hydrofluoric acid or their substitutes in precise ratios to achieve optimal pickling and passivation efficiency. Produced and standardized under controlled temperature and concentration conditions to ensure consistent acid strength and minimal metal loss. Supplied in corrosion-resistant containers, tightly sealed to prevent fume emission, contamination, or evaporation.
🔬 Properties
A clear to slightly yellowish, strongly acidic liquid with high reactivity toward stainless steel oxide scales, weld discolorations, and heat tints. Exhibits excellent wetting and penetrating properties, enabling uniform treatment of complex stainless steel surfaces. Highly corrosive, non-flammable, and stable under proper storage in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas. Specific gravity typically ranges between 1.05 and 1.15 g/mL, depending on acid composition and concentration.
🧪 Applications
Used in pharmaceutical and laboratory environments for the removal of heat tint, scale, and oxide films from stainless steel components after welding or fabrication. Essential in restoring the passive chromium-oxide layer that ensures chemical resistance and cleanliness of stainless steel surfaces in reactors, vessels, transfer lines, and sterile equipment. Commonly applied by immersion, circulation, or controlled spray methods, followed by thorough rinsing with deionized water to remove all residual acids.
⚠️ Safety
Extremely corrosive and hazardous. Can cause severe chemical burns, eye damage, and respiratory irritation. Handle only in acid-resistant equipment and under a fume hood or with local exhaust ventilation. Always wear full protective gear including acid-resistant gloves, goggles, face shield, and protective clothing. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and metals incompatible with acids. In case of spills, neutralize immediately with sodium bicarbonate or lime and dispose of according to institutional and environmental safety regulations. Store in tightly closed, acid-resistant containers in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from bases and oxidizable materials.
