Cleansol Phosphoric Acid 85% (H₃PO₄) | Descaler, Rust Remover & pH Adjuster for Cleaning & Maintenance
Product Description:
Cleansol Phosphoric Acid 85% is a concentrated, inorganic acid used for scale removal, rust cleaning, and pH adjustment in a wide range of cleaning and maintenance applications. It dissolves mineral deposits and oxide stains while being less volatile than strong mineral acids, making it practical for controlled descaling and surface preparation.
