Oxalic Acid Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Ethanedioic Acid
Oxalic acid, also called ethanedioic acid, is a crystalline dicarboxylic acid supplied for industrial processing and chemical manufacture in Malaysia. It is distinct from citric acid, formic acid and other organic acids, so enquiries should identify oxalic acid by name and state the required form.
The main commercial forms are oxalic acid dihydrate and anhydrous oxalic acid. Industrial grade and technical grade are broad trade terms rather than one universal specification, so buyers should provide the required assay, impurity limits, moisture basis and intended process where relevant.
Typical uses include metal surface treatment, formulated industrial cleaning, textile processing, professional wood treatment, and production of oxalates, esters and other chemical preparations. For cleaning and surface-treatment applications, formulation and operating conditions are set by the buyer's established process and substrate requirements.
Send the required hydrate form, industrial or technical specification, quantity, intended application and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Oxalic Acid applications
Common questions about oxalic acid
What is the difference between oxalic acid dihydrate and anhydrous oxalic acid?
The dihydrate contains water of crystallisation, while the anhydrous form does not. State the required form because moisture balance, dosing basis and specification can differ between processes.
Are industrial grade and technical grade oxalic acid the same specification?
Not necessarily. These are broad market terms and limits can differ by producer or application, so send the required assay, impurity limits, hydrate form and intended use for matching and quotation.
Is ethanedioic acid the same as oxalic acid?
Yes. Ethanedioic acid is the systematic name for oxalic acid; the enquiry should still state whether dihydrate or anhydrous material is required.
Which oxalic acid form is suitable for metal treatment or industrial cleaning?
The suitable form and grade depend on the formulation, substrate, moisture basis and target specification. Send the process requirement rather than relying on a generic cleaning recipe, so the quotation can be matched to the requested form.
What information should I include in an oxalic acid enquiry?
Provide the dihydrate or anhydrous form, industrial or technical specification, quantity, intended application and delivery location. Include any packing constraints for confirmation with the quotation.
