    Product Overview

    High-purity sulfuric acid for laboratory analysis, research, and industrial applications.

    Detailed Description

    Laboratory Grade Sulfuric Acid supplier in Oman - Global Chemicals LLC provides high-purity sulfuric acid for research laboratories, universities, and industrial quality control in Muscat, Sohar, Duqm, Salalah. Our lab-grade H2SO4 meets ACS specifications for analytical work, titrations, and chemical synthesis. Available in various concentrations (95-98%, diluted grades) for different laboratory applications. Essential for pH adjustment, digestion procedures, battery electrolyte preparation, and organic synthesis. Widely used in Sultan Qaboos University labs, PDO research facilities, OPAL labs, and industrial QC laboratories across Oman. The strong mineral acid is critical for analytical chemistry, petroleum testing, and materials analysis. Widely used in QC laboratories across Oman's oil & gas sector (PDO, OQ, BP Oman), food processing quality control labs, university research departments at SQU, GUtech, and MU, and water analysis laboratories. Supply in 500mL, 2.5L, and 5L glass bottles with safety data sheet, certificate of analysis, and appropriate transport packaging.

    Frequently Asked Questions — Sulfuric Acid (Laboratory Grade)

    Laboratory sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is supplied in several purity grades to match application requirements. ACS (American Chemical Society) reagent grade is 95–98% H₂SO₄ with strict limits on heavy metals, chloride, nitrate, and residue — required for analytical chemistry titrations, pH standards, and trace analysis. AR (Analytical Reagent) grade from BDH, Sigma-Aldrich, or Merck meets equivalent purity for laboratory analysis. Technical grade is 93–98% but with higher impurity levels, suitable for industrial use but not laboratory analytical work. For HPLC mobile phase preparation, ultra-pure (HPLC grade) sulphuric acid with sub-ppb metal contaminant levels is required. In Oman's university and research laboratory sector (SQU, Sultan Qaboos University; UTAS; CAS), analytical grade is standard. For Oman's industrial quality control labs performing wastewater COD analysis (which uses sulphuric acid), AR grade is specified in Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater. Global Chemicals LLC supplies laboratory sulfuric acid from international brands (BDH, Sigma, Merck) with lot-specific certificates of analysis.

    Sulfuric acid is one of the most dangerous common laboratory chemicals, with unique hazards: it is strongly corrosive (pH<1 at dilute concentrations), generates intense heat on dilution with water (always add acid to water, never water to acid), and concentrated sulfuric acid dehydrates organic materials (including human tissue) causing severe chemical burns with delayed pain onset. In Oman laboratory environments, mandatory safety controls include: chemical-resistant gloves (butyl rubber or neoprene, not nitrile for concentrated acid), chemical splash goggles (not standard safety glasses), lab coat and closed-toe shoes, use only in a fume hood for concentrated acid, designated acid storage in polypropylene or glass secondary containment cabinets, spill kits containing sodium bicarbonate neutraliser, and emergency eyewash within 10 seconds of handling area. For dilution, always add concentrated acid slowly to water while stirring, never the reverse. Oman's Ministry of Manpower OSH regulations require chemical-specific COSHH assessments for hazardous substance use in laboratories. Global Chemicals LLC provides SDS, risk assessment templates, and personal protective equipment alongside laboratory chemical supply.
