Hydrochloric acid Alcohol (4 % / 99 %)

Hydrochloric acid alcohol solution is an effective and versatile chemical solution used in various applications such as medical diagnostics, histology, metallography and scientific laboratories. It is particularly suitable for in vitro diagnostics and serves as an essential tool in the analysis of diverse sample types and reagents.

In medical diagnostics, the solution is widely used to decolorize tissue samples, especially in histology to distinguish cell structures and types and to identify pathological changes. Metallographers value the solution as an etchant to visualize and analyze microscopic surface and structure inside metals.

The chemical composition of this product is fuming hydrochloric acid (HCl) and denatured ethanol (C2H5OH), where fuming hydrochloric acid is a concentrated aqueous solution of hydrogen chloride and the denatured ethanol is denatured with solvents such as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), isopropanol (IPA) and Bitrex (BTX). This combination gives the solution its special properties and allows effective results in the above applications.
