Application


  • Environmental Monitoring and Remediation: Oxalic acid solution is widely used in environmental studies to analyze and remediate pollutants in water and soil samples. It is particularly effective in extracting heavy metals and other contaminants, facilitating their quantification through various analytical techniques. Recent research has demonstrated the use of oxalic acid in the extraction and analysis of phosphate and oxalic acid levels in soil, highlighting its importance in environmental monitoring and agricultural studies (Abodunrin et al., Pakistan Journal of Analytical & Environmental Chemistry, 2020).

  • Material Science and Synthesis: Oxalic acid solution plays a crucial role in the preparation and characterization of advanced materials. For instance, it is used in the synthesis of laminated alumina films through anodic oxidation, which exhibit unique structural colors. This application is essential for developing novel materials with potential applications in photonics and electronics (Segawa and Wada, Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2020).

  • Crystal Growth and Characterization: In crystallography, oxalic acid solution is employed to grow and study single crystals of various compounds. Research has shown its effectiveness in growing oxalic acid dihydrate, potassium oxalate hydrate, and potassium hydrogen oxalate oxalic acid dihydrate crystals. These studies are crucial for understanding the properties and potential applications of these materials in scientific and industrial contexts (Mahendra and Udayashankar, Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids, 2020).

  • Industrial Waste Processing: Oxalic acid solution is used in the leaching and processing of industrial waste to recover valuable materials. For example, it is utilized in the production of boric acid from ulexite waste, demonstrating its efficiency in extracting boron from industrial by-products. This application is important for developing sustainable methods for waste management and resource recovery (Koçan and Bayça, Uluslararası Muhendislik Arastirma ve Gelistirme Dergisi, 2020).

  • Corrosion Studies and Surface Treatment: Oxalic acid solution is employed in the study of corrosion behaviors and surface treatments of various metals. It is used in the anodizing processes of aluminum alloys to improve their corrosion resistance and surface properties. Recent research has focused on the formation behavior of anodizing films on aluminum alloys in oxalic acid solution, providing insights into enhancing the durability and performance of metal surfaces (Pham et al., Materials Chemistry and Physics, 2024).
