Formic acid has an interesting name called formic acid. When it comes to formic acid, you may think of acetic acid, but the two are not the same. The acid of formic acid is strong and corrosive. When we use this kind of goods, we should do a good job in protection. Recently, many people have been wondering whether formic acid can be used as a metal cleaning agent. As for the answer, let's find out.

甲酸的結(jié)構(gòu)特殊，它的一個氫原子和羧基直接相連。因此同時具有酸和醛和性質(zhì)。 它具有和醛類似的還原性。它能起銀鏡反應(yīng)，把銀氨絡(luò)離子中的銀離子還原成金屬銀，而自己被氧化成二氧化碳和水。它是單一能和烯烴進行加成反應(yīng)的羧酸。它在酸的作用下(如硫酸，氫氟酸)，和烯烴迅速反應(yīng)生成甲酸酯。

Formic acid has a special structure. One of its hydrogen atoms is directly connected with the carboxyl group. Therefore, it has both acid and aldehyde properties. It has reducibility similar to aldehyde. It can act as a silver mirror reaction, reducing silver ions in silver ammonia complex ions to metallic silver, and being oxidized to carbon dioxide and water. It is a single carboxylic acid that can react with olefins. In the presence of acids (such as sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid), it reacts rapidly with olefins to form formates.
                             

它作為有機酸的其中之一，酸性比鹽酸小，而比碳酸的酸性強，它是簡單羧酸類化學品，因為自身擁有一定的水溶液，所生成的甲酸鹽都能溶解于水,因而可作為化學清洗劑。所以能溶解許多金屬：銅、金、銦、鐵、鋁、錳、汞、鉬、銀、鋅、鈰、錸、鎢等金屬氧化物、氫氧化物及鹽等。它不含氯離子的化學性能，還是其用于含不銹鋼材料的設(shè)備的清洗的重要因素。它有其獨特的化學性質(zhì)，有的時候它的酸性可以用醋酸，以甲醛代替,還原性。但是它還有一定氧化性,是無可替代的，因此它可以作為金屬的清洗劑來使用。

As one of the organic acids, it is less acidic than hydrochloric acid, but stronger than carbonic acid. It is a simple carboxylic acid chemical. Because it has a certain water solution, the formate can be dissolved in water, so it can be used as a chemical cleaning agent. So it can dissolve many metals: copper, gold, indium, iron, aluminum, manganese, mercury, molybdenum, silver, zinc, cerium, rhenium, tungsten and other metal oxides, hydroxides and salts. Its chlorine free chemical performance is also an important factor in the cleaning of equipment containing stainless steel materials. It has its unique chemical properties, sometimes its acidity can be replaced by acetic acid, formaldehyde, reducibility. But it also has a certain oxidation, is irreplaceable, so it can be used as a metal cleaning agent.

可見，蟻酸是可以作為金屬清洗劑來使用的，看完本篇內(nèi)容，大家是不是又了解到一個小常識呢，溫馨提示大家在使用的時候要注意保護好自己哦。如果大家對于甲酸有需求，可以撥打我們的熱線電話聯(lián)系我們，我們定會為大家提供合適的產(chǎn)品。

It can be seen that formic acid can be used as a metal cleaning agent. After reading this article, do you know a little common sense?
