Key Applications in Labs
This versatile nitric acid finds use across multiple scientific disciplines:
In chemistry labs, it serves as a strong oxidizing agent for organic synthesis and nitration reactions. Metallurgists rely on it for etching stainless steel and other metals, while environmental scientists use it for sample digestion in trace metal analysis. Educational institutions incorporate it into curriculum experiments to demonstrate acid-base reactions and redox chemistry.
The CMOS grade designation indicates its suitability for semiconductor manufacturing processes, where even trace impurities can disrupt delicate fabrication steps. This makes it a preferred choice for electronics research labs working on microchip development or circuit board production.
Safety and Handling Considerations
As with all concentrated acids, proper handling is crucial. Always wear appropriate PPE including acid-resistant gloves, goggles, and lab coats when working with nitric acid. Perform all procedures in a well-ventilated fume hood to avoid inhaling harmful vapors. The corrosive nature of this chemical requires storage in compatible containers away from organic materials and reducing agents.
For disposal, follow your institution’s hazardous waste protocols. Never pour nitric acid down drains or mix it with other chemicals without proper knowledge of potential reactions. eqipped recommends consulting the included Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive handling guidelines.
Why This Product Stands Out
What sets this nitric acid apart is its rigorous quality control. Avantor’s manufacturing process ensures minimal impurities, with each batch tested to meet CMOS specifications. The 7 lb packaging offers a practical size for most lab applications—large enough for multiple experiments but small enough to maintain freshness.
The clear labeling and tamper-evident packaging provide peace of mind about product integrity. For researchers tracking inventory, the BAKR9606-03 catalog number allows easy reordering through eqipped’s streamlined system. Running low on essential lab chemicals?

Complementary Products to Consider
For complete lab setups, you might also need:
Sulfuric acid for additional acid digestion applications
Hydrochloric acid for general lab use
Nitric acid-resistant glassware and storage bottles
pH indicators and neutralizers for safety protocols
eqipped carries all these items, allowing you to source your entire chemical inventory from one trusted supplier.
CMOS grade nitric acid undergoes additional purification to remove metal impurities, making it suitable for semiconductor applications where trace contaminants could affect microchip performance. Reagent grade is high quality but doesn’t meet the same stringent purity requirements.
Can I use this nitric acid for gold testing?
Yes, this 67–70% concentration is appropriate for aqua regia preparation when combined with hydrochloric acid for gold dissolution and testing procedures.
How should I store nitric acid to maintain its quality?
Store in a cool, dry place in the original tightly sealed container. Keep away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances like organic compounds, metals, and reducing agents.
Is this product suitable for educational lab experiments?
Absolutely. Many universities and colleges use this exact product for chemistry demonstrations and student experiments due to its consistent quality and reliable performance.
Does eqipped offer bulk discounts on nitric acid purchases?
Yes, we provide competitive pricing for bulk orders. Contact our sales team through the website for customized quotes based on your volume requirements.
Risk Note
WARNING: Nitric acid is highly corrosive and can cause severe skin burns and eye damage. Inhalation of vapors may cause respiratory irritation. Always handle with extreme care in properly equipped laboratories. Not for household use.
