Sulfuric acid, the oil of vitriol of alchemists, with formula H2SO4 is the strongest of simple acids.
Among the uses of sulfuric acid, we can mention: the manufacture of fertilizers (superphosphates), consuming 50% of production; the artificial textile industry; ore processing; petroleum refining; electricity storage ('lead-acid batteries'); metal pickling in steelmaking; the synthesis of numerous compounds (dyes, explosives, detergents, salts, other acids...).
Thanks to its PTFE cable and PVDF housing, the TUBA 125C can be used to control/detect a level in sulfuric acid.
