PICKLING SOLUTION Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Pickling solutions are acidic mixtures used in metal treatment processes to remove oxides, scales, and other impurities from metal surfaces. Common acids used in pickling solutions include hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid, often combined with inhibitors to prevent excessive metal dissolution. Pickling is essential in industries such as steel manufacturing, where clean, oxide-free surfaces are required for further processing, such as galvanizing or painting. Handling pickling solutions requires stringent safety measures due to their corrosive nature. Protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and acid-resistant clothing, is necessary to prevent skin and eye contact. Proper ventilation is essential to avoid inhalation of acidic fumes. Storage should be in corrosion-resistant containers, away from incompatible substances. Disposal must comply with local environmental regulations to prevent soil and water contamination. Pickling solutions play a critical role in ensuring the quality and durability of metal products.
