1 of 12 products in this brand
Naxcat® XSA-90 is a strong, concentrated organic acid that is completely liquid. For ease of handling as compared with TSA-95. Naxcat® XSA-90 will not crystallize at low temperatures, offering acid strength and fluidity. It is comparable in strength to mineral acids such as sulfuric acid, but is especially suitable for organic reactions where an inorganic, mineral acid could cause charring, oxidation, or an unwanted chemical reaction.

Chemical Family: Sulfonic Acids & Derivatives

Applicable Processes: Coatings Manufacturing, Dye Manufacturing, Metal Prep, Polymer Manufacturing, Textiles Manufacturing

Synonyms: Dimethylbenzenesulfonic acid, XSA 90, Xylene-ar-sulfonic acid, Xylenesulfonic acid

Storage & Handling

Storage Information

Keep container tightly closed when not in use. Store in cool, well ventilated area. Steel is corroded by sulfonic acids and is not recommended for prolonged storage at elevated temperatures since iron and color contamination could result. Dilution with water may increase corrosivity of the acid. Material will absorb moisture.
