Product description:

Lactic Acid 80% is a concentrated organic acid with good water solubility and chelating properties. Its combination of acidity and metal-ion complexing ability makes it suitable for industrial processes requiring scale removal, pH adjustment, metal cleaning, and controlled acidification.

In oilfield and petrochemical applications, Lactic Acid 80% can be incorporated into descaling, acid stimulation, and cleaning systems where effective carbonate-scale removal and controlled acidity are required.

Product Applications:

  • Oilfield Descaling

Used in oilfield treatment systems to help dissolve carbonate-based scale and deposits from equipment and process surfaces.

  • Acid Stimulation

Applied as an organic acid component in selected stimulation and acidizing formulations requiring controlled acidity and chelation.

  • Metal Cleaning & Surface Treatment

Used for scale removal, metal cleaning, and surface preparation where organic acidity and metal-ion complexing are beneficial.

  • Chelation & pH Adjustment

Functions as a chelating and acidifying agent in industrial formulations requiring metal-ion control and pH reduction.
