Record Type: concept
oxalic acid (acid, <materials by property>, ... Materials (hierarchy name))

 

Note: Refers to a strong organic acid derived from sorrel and other plants. A crystalline powder, oxalic acid lends itself to many commercial applications, principally as a bleaching agent and as a reducing agent to remove tarnish, rust and ink stains. In art manufacture and conservation, further uses include removal of paint and varnish, and cleaning of encrustations from sculptures and paintings.

Additional Notes:
Dutch ..... Verwijst naar een sterk organisch zuur dat afkomstig is uit zuring en andere planten. Als kristallijn poeder leent oxaalzuur zich goed voor vele commerciĆ«le toepassingen, met name als bleekmiddel en als reductor om aanslag, roest en inktvlekken te verwijderen. In de productie en conservering van kunst wordt het bovendien gebruikt voor de verwijdering van verf en vernis en het verwijderen van aanslag van beeldhouwwerken en schilderijen.
