Introduction to Oxalic Acid
Oxalic acid is a colorless, crystalline organic compound with the chemical formula C₂H₂O₄.
It is a naturally occurring substance found in many plants, such as spinach and rhubarb,
and is also produced industrially for various applications.
Key Properties:
Appearance: White crystalline solid.
Solubility: Highly soluble in water and alcohol.
Acidity: A strong organic acid, capable of forming salts known as oxalates.
Industrial Production Methods:
Oxidation of Carbohydrates: Using nitric acid as an oxidizer.
Sodium Formate Method: A widely used industrial process involving carbon monoxide and sodium hydroxide.
Ethylene Glycol Oxidation: Catalyzed by nitric acid or air.
Biological Fermentation: Utilizing microorganisms like Aspergillus niger.
Applications:
Cleaning Agent: Effective in removing rust and stains from metals.
Bleaching Agent: Used in textiles and wood industries.
Chemical Synthesis: A key raw material for dyes, pharmaceuticals, and other chemicals.
Rare Earth Extraction: Essential in separating and purifying rare earth elements.
Electroplating: Stabilizes metal ions in plating solutions.
Polishing Agent: Restores shine to marble and stone surfaces.
Safety Considerations:
Oxalic acid is toxic if ingested and can cause irritation to the skin and eyes.
Proper handling and protective equipment are essential when working with this chemical.
Environmental Impact:
While widely used, oxalic acid is biodegradable
and considered environmentally friendly when managed responsibly.
Oxalic acid’s versatility and effectiveness make it a vital component in
numerous industrial and commercial processes.

The role of oxalic acid in rust removal

1. Rust removal principle
Chemical reaction: oxalic acid reacts with iron oxide (rust) on the surface of the metal to
produce soluble iron oxalate and water, thereby removing rust.
Reaction equation: Fe₂O₃ + 6H₂C₂O₄ → 2Fe(C₂O₄)₃ + 3H₂O

2. Application scenario
Metal products: used to clean rust on the surface of iron, steel and other metal products.
Industrial equipment: Used to clean rust on the surface of industrial equipment and machinery.
Auto maintenance: Used to remove rust from auto body and parts.
Household items: Used to clean household metal items, such as tools, railings, etc.

3. Usage method
Preparation solution: the oxalic acid powder is mixed with water in a certain proportion,
usually the concentration is 5%-10%.
Apply or soak: Apply the oxalic acid solution to the rusty surface, or soak the corroded item directly in the solution.
Reaction time: Depending on the severity of the rust, wait a few minutes to a few hours.
Scrubbing: Use a brush to scrub the rusty area to help remove the rust layer.
Rinse: Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove residual oxalic acid and reaction products.
Drying: Wipe or air dry the metal surface to prevent re-rusting.

4.Strengths
High efficiency: Can quickly and effectively remove rust.
Economy: Low cost, easy access.
Multifunctional: Suitable for a variety of metals and different shapes of items.

5. Precautions
Safety: Wear gloves and goggles when using, avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Ventilation: Maintain ventilation to avoid inhalation of steam.
Concentration control: Avoid using too high concentration of oxalic acid solution to prevent corrosion of metal.
Rinse thoroughly: Ensure thorough flushing to prevent residual oxalic acid from corroding the metal.
