What is Hydrofluoric Acid?

Hydrofluoric acid (HF) also referred to as Fluohydric or Fluoric acid is a clear, colorless corrosive liquid that is extremely hazardous. Hydrofluoric Acid is a versatile chemical with diverse industrial applications, but its handling requires meticulous attention to safety due to its corrosive nature and potential health hazards.

Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) gets interlaced with hydrochloric acid - The primary difference between hydrofluoric and hydrochloric acid is its solubility in water. HCI is a strong acid while hydrofluoric or HF is a weak acid. It’s called a weak acid because it doesn’t fully detach or separate into its ions in water, but it’s still a very dangerous acid.
The primary difference between hydrofluoric acid (HF) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) lies in their chemical composition and properties:

  • Chemical Composition
  • Reactivity
  • Corrosiveness
  • Applications
  • Health and Safety Concerns

How Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) is Typically Used
