Perchloric acid solution 0.1M in glacial acetic acid is a highly corrosive and flammable acid solution used primarily in analytical chemistry, particularly as a standardized volumetric titrant for the non-aqueous titration of weak bases, and in electrochemical studies. This standardized solution combines perchloric acid (CAS 7601-90-3, HClO4, MW 100.46 g/mol) with glacial acetic acid to enhance stability and control reactivity. It must be stored at ambient conditions, handled with extreme caution (Danger signal word), and used in well-ventilated areas or fume hoods due to its hazardous nature. Molekula supplies Perchloric acid solution 0.1M in glacial acetic acid from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
