Another alien kind of chemical name, but we use it every now and then in our daily applications. In lay man’s language we called it just “Acid”.

So, let’s find out some more facts about the Acid !

We can find this acid in our daily life solutions like toilet cleaner, floor cleaner etc. in fact most of the industrial cleaning products are based on the Acid.

It is a very common practice to use Acid slurries as a prime active ingredient.

Generally when we find any challenge in the cleaning process, we think that Acid is the only cleaning solution.

Well, we may think like wise but let’s see the other side of Acid effects.

Acid is an inorganic component. It is highly corrosive, generally having a pH around 0.5. It is known as a toxic substance. Acidic mist may contain condensed hydrochloric Acid, known as hydrochloric Acid fumes. Both, this mist and the solution, have a corrosive effect on human tissues, It creates irreversible damage to breathing organs, hair, skin, and intestines.

All of my brothers and sisters who are working as “Hygiene Soldiers” are more prone to the Chronic Diseases which may prove fatal for them. It is truly high time to understand and implement some more concrete steps towards Safer and Better work environment for each and every human being. This all is applicable for you too…..
