HCL-Hydrogen Chloride
Hydrogen chloride has the chemical formula HCl. A hydrogen chloride molecule is composed of a chlorine atom and a hydrogen atom. It is a colorless gas with a pungent odor. Corrosive, non-combustible gas, does not react with water but is easily soluble in water. It is often present in the air in the form of hydrochloric acid fumes. Hydrogen chloride is easily soluble in ethanol and ether, and also soluble in many other organic substances; very easily soluble in water, at 0°C, 1 volume of water can dissolve approximately 500 volumes of hydrogen chloride.
Hydrogen chloride is used in the petrochemical industry to promote the effectiveness and regeneration of catalysts and increase the viscosity of petroleum; it can be used to produce chlorosulfonic acid, synthetic rubber, etc.; it can also be used to make dyes, fragrances, drug synthesis, various chlorides and corrosion inhibitors, and clean , Pickling, electroplating metal, tanning, refining or manufacturing hard metal.
Hydrogen chloride is produced by the direct reaction of hydrogen and chlorine instead of as a by-product of the manufacture of chlorinated hydrocarbons. It is inherently pure as a result and has applications in industries including pharmaceutical and petrochemical. High purity hydrogen chloride used in the semiconductor industry is produced by further reaction with catalysts as well as absorption techniques to remove impurities.
