- Substance
Sulfuric acid ACIPUR is a colorless, viscous liquid with a density of 1.84 g/mL at 20°C. It has a boiling point of approximately 337°C and a melting point of -3°C. The acid is highly soluble in water, releasing heat upon dilution. Its high viscosity and density make it a unique substance in chemical applications, and it has a strong, pungent odor. The acid is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, which is an important consideration for storage and handling.
