Lutropur MSA is pure methanesulfonic acid.
Lutropur MSA is a strong organic acid.
Lutropur MSA acts as a crosslinking catalyst.
Lutropur MSA is a highly active organic acid.
This colorless and odorless methane sulfonic acid forms highly soluble salts.
Lutropur MSA is readily biodegradable and sustainable alternative to conventional acids.
Lutropur MSA finds application in metal surface treatment in electronics industry.
Lutropur MSA has advantage that many of the salts that it forms with metals are very soluble in water.
Lutropur MSA is readily biodegradable, and it is also distinguished by its high thermal stability and its high conductivity.
Lutropur MSA is a strong and odorless organic acid with a unique property profile that distinguishes it from all other acids.
Benefits in practical applications come, for example, from its nonoxidizing nature, the high solubility of its salts, the absence of color and odor, and the fact that it is readily biodegradable.
Consequently, Lutropur MSA is becoming increasingly important in a number of applications and industries.
Using a unique manufacturing process, Lutropur MSA is able to provide a colorless and odorless product that is virtually free of metal ions and sulfates.
Chlorinecontaining by-products are also ruled out by the halogen-free process.
As a result, consumers in all relevant fields benefit from being able to use Lutropur MSA that is of very high purity.
Applications of Lutropur MSA:
Lutropur MSA is a strong organic acid.
Lutropur MSA has the advantage that many of the salts that it forms with metals are very soluble in water.
Lutropur MSA is readily biodegradable, and it is also distinguished by its high thermal stability and its high conductivity.
Lutropur MSA is mainly employed as an electrolyte in electroplating baths on account of the range of properties that it displays.
Lutropur MSA is increasingly being used as an alternative to other acids such as tetrafluoroboric acid, phenolsulphonic acid or sulphuric acid.
Lutropur MSA is employed as an electrolyte for tin and tin-lead plating baths that are used for wire and steel strip plating as well as for electronic devices.
The advantage of formulating tin-lead plating baths with Lutropur MSA is that they can be run with lower concentrations of organic additives than tetrafluoroboratebased baths.
There is less precipitation caused by the formation of Sn4+, and baths can be run at a wider range of current densities.
Tin-lead alloy plating plays an important role in the production of printed circuit boards.
Lutropur MSA enables the current density to be increased and makes it possible to plate coil and wire with tin more quickly.
Processes that employ Lutropur MSA are more environmentally friendly than the Ferrostan and halogen processes.
Because of the high solubility of its metal salts, Lutropur MSA can be used in stripping and etching processes, metal recycling, electropolishing, in the regeneration of ion exchangers, and for coloring aluminium.
In the chemical industry, Lutropur MSA can be used as a catalyst for esterification, condensation and polymerization reactions.
Lutropur MSA is a non-oxidizing acid with high thermal stability, good biodegradability and a low organic carbon content, and this unique set of features makes it very effective in this type of application.
MSA is supplied as a 70% aqueous solution under the brand name Lutropur MSA.
Anhydrous MSA is available under the brand name Lutropur MSA 100.
Lutropur MSA is odorless.
Because the intensity of the odor is governed primarily by the vapor pressure of a compound, vapor pressure curves provide an indication of the odor intensity of a substance.
The curves show that compounds with a strong odor, such as hydrochloric acid, acetic acid and formic acid, have a high vapor pressure, as would be expected.
By contrast, methanesulfonic acid is characterized by an extremely low vapor pressure, which is consistent with its lack of odor.
Lutropur MSA is high purity methanesulfonic acid 70% (in water).
Lutropur MSA provides fast and powerful cleaning, even against greasy soils.
Lutropur MSA also removes lime scale, calcium deposits, and soap rests, as well as improves rust and grime removal.
Lutropur MSA is suitable for bathroom cleaners toilet bowl cleaners, shower cleaners, and rust removers.
Lutropur MSA is readily biodegradable and sustainable alternative to conventional acids.
