FAQs of Fluorosilicic Acid 35%:
Q: How should Fluorosilicic Acid 35% be stored and handled safely?
A: Fluorosilicic Acid 35% must be stored in tightly sealed HDPE drums or approved bulk tankers, away from incompatible materials like bases, oxidizers, glass, or ceramics. Use protective clothing, gloves, and eye protection when handling. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area and avoid any contact with skin or eyes, as it is highly corrosive and toxic.
Q: What is the main benefit of using Fluorosilicic Acid 35% in water treatment?
A: Its primary benefit is the effective fluoridation of municipal water supplies, which helps in dental health by reducing tooth decay rates in communities. The acid dissolves readily in water, ensuring a consistent and controlled release of fluoride ions during treatment.
Q: When is Fluorosilicic Acid 35% considered stable for use?
A: The acid remains stable for up to 24 months when stored under its recommended conditionssealed, protected from heat, and away from incompatible substances. Stability ensures its efficacy and safety throughout its shelf life, supporting reliable industrial and municipal use.
Q: Where can Fluorosilicic Acid 35% be applied in industries?
A: This chemical finds applications in water fluoridation plants, metal surface treatment facilities, ceramic and glass manufacturing, and as an intermediate in various chemical processes. It is distributed and supplied across India to organizations in these sectors.
Q: What is the process of handling spills or exposure to Fluorosilicic Acid 35%?
A: Evacuate the affected area immediately and ventilate it. Wear full protective gear during cleanup. Contain spills with inert material (e.g., sand), and do not allow it to enter drains. In cases of exposure, wash skin or eyes with copious water and seek immediate medical attention.
Q: How does Fluorosilicic Acid 35% benefit industrial manufacturing processes?
A: Its strong acidity and ability to dissolve and remove scale, oxides, and impurities from metals and ceramics make it valuable for efficient cleaning, etching, or surface preparation in manufacturing, contributing to higher quality finished products.
