About Phosphoric Acid
Phosphoric acid is a colorless and odorless phosphorous-containing inorganic mineral acid. It is used in medicine, dentistry, fertilizer manufacturing, and many other applications. It belongs to a class of non-metal phosphates and acts as a sequestering agent that binds many divalent cations. The molecules of phosphoric acid combine with themselves and form various compounds. Phosphoric acid is available as a clear-colorless liquid and transparent crystalline solid. It is commonly known as orthophosphoric acid or phosphoric(V) acid.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global phosphoric acid market to grow at a CAGR of 2.21% during the period 2017-2021.
