                                                  Introduction to Oxalic Acid

Dihydrate oxalic acid is a crystalline organic compound with chemical formula C₂H₂O₄·2H₂O,

which is widely used in industry, laboratory and home.

It is the hydrated form of oxalic acid, and each oxalic acid molecule contains two water molecules.

Appearance: White, odorless crystalline solid. Solubility: easily soluble in water,

slightly soluble in ethanol and other organic solvents.

Molecular weight: 126.07 g/mol.

Melting point: 101-102°C (dehydration after heating).

Density: 1.653 g/cm³.

Industrial use: metal cleaning and polishing (e.g., rust removal). Bleach in textile

and wood processing. Ingredients for cleaning products and detergents.

Laboratory use: reducing agent for chemical reactions.

Standard solution in titration and analytical chemistry. Metal ions precipitated in

the form of insoluble oxalates.

Other Uses: Beekeeping: Used to control mites in beehives. Photography: As a developer.

Oxalic acid is a dicarboxylic acid, which means that it can provide two protons (H +) in the reaction.

It reacts with a base to form oxalates (such as calcium oxalate).

It can reduce strong oxidants such as potassium permanganate (kmno4).

Form insoluble precipitates with metal ions such as calcium (ca2 + ca2 +),

making it useful in water softening and analytical chemistry.

Safety and handling Toxicity: oxalate dihydrate is toxic if ingested, inhaled,

or absorbed through the skin. Due to the formation of calcium oxalate crystals,

it can cause kidney damage.

Corrosive: It is corrosive to the skin and eyes, so proper protective equipment (gloves, goggles, etc.) is essential.

Storage: Cool and dry place, away from incompatible substances such as strong oxidants.

Dihydrate oxalic acid is usually produced by: oxidizing carbohydrates (such as glucose) with nitric acid.

Thermal decomposition of sodium formate. Oxalic acid is biodegradable and does not persist in the environment.

However, due to its toxicity to aquatic organisms, its release into water bodies should be minimized.

In summary, dihydrate oxalic acid is a versatile chemical, but due to its toxic and corrosive nature,

it needs to be handled with caution. Its applications range from industrial cleaning to analytical chemistry,

making it an important compound in various fields.

The main applications of industrial oxalic acid are diverse

and widely used across various industries.

Oxalic acid dihydrate (C₂H₂O₄·2H₂O),

​It is an important organic compound that has a wide range of uses in industry,

laboratory and daily life. The following are its main uses:

1. Industrial use

especially in the cleaning and polishing of stainless steel and aluminum products.

Bleach:
In the textile and wood processing industries, oxalic acid dihydrate is used as a bleach to

help remove pigments and stains.

Cleaning agent:
It is an important ingredient in many household

and industrial cleaners used to remove stubborn dirt and mineral deposits.

2. Laboratory use
Reducing agent:
In chemical experiments, oxalic acid dihydrate is often used as a reducing agent to

participate in REDOX reactions.

Standard solution:
In analytical chemistry, oxalic acid dihydrate is used to prepare standard solutions,

especially in titration analysis.

Precipitating agent:
Dihydrate oxalic acid can react with a variety of metal ions (such as calcium, magnesium, iron, etc.) to

produce insoluble oxalate precipitation, which is used for qualitative or quantitative analysis of metal ions.

3. Other uses

Stone cleaning:
Used to clean marble and other stone surfaces, remove stains and rust spots.

4. Medicine and Chemical Industry
Chemical synthesis:
Oxalic acid is an important raw material for the synthesis of

other organic compounds (such as oxalate, oxalate, etc.).

Water treatment:
It is used to soften water quality and form insoluble precipitation by reacting with calcium and magnesium ions.

5. Daily use
Home cleaning:
It can be used to remove scale and rust from toilets, bathrooms and sinks.

Rust remover:
For car repair or household tools rust treatment.

Matters needing attention
Although dihydrate oxalic acid is widely used, it is toxic and corrosive, and should be used safely,

avoid direct contact with the skin or inhalation of dust, and properly stored in a cool and dry place.

In summary, oxalic acid dihydrate is a versatile chemical that plays an important role in industry,

laboratory and daily life, but it needs to be used carefully to ensure safety.
