By application, steel pickling accounted for the largest market for hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is mainly utilized as a pickling agent for dissolving metal oxides, corrosion products, and other impurities from the surface of the metal. Hydrochloric acid is preferred over other acids for pickling operation as it offers less pickling time, strong chemical solubility, and is suitable for pickling operation at room temperature. The steel industry is growing steadily owing to an increase in demand from the building & construction and automotive industry. The growth in steel pickling application in the steel industry further expects to propel the demand for hydrochloric acid during the forecast period.
By end-use industry, the chemical industry account for the largest market for hydrochloric acid. Hydrochloric acid is used as a reducing agent, catalytic reagent, and hydrolyzing agent in organic chemistry. It is used in the preparation and identification of many important organic & inorganic compounds. Hydrochloric acid is utilized in the production of polyvinyl chloride resins, polycarbonate resin, calcium chloride, and others.
