Requirement cards we use before contacting nitric acid distributors
Each card is a field group, not a service package with a published price. If a value is unknown, leave it unknown. Filling a blank with a typical 68 percent story when the plant asked for another concentration will make later quotes incomparable.
Identity and assay
Write the chemical name and CAS number when known. Record requested concentration, purity, water content and any trace-metals or chloride limits that the receiving process actually uses. Density and pH belong here only when the destination measures them. A product-family label such as Basic & Industrial Chemicals is not a specification.
Quantity and package
State kilograms, metric tons, liters, drums, IBCs or bulk. Note whether the quantity is a sample, trial lot, recurring forecast or firm order. Drum net content, IBC cage type and bulk compartment limits change freight more often than the molecule name does, so they stay visible on the worksheet.
Documents to request
Ask for the current safety data sheet, technical data sheet and certificate of analysis format for the proposed product. Add TSCA, REACH, GMP or ISO questions only when they apply to this use. Those answers remain supplier evidence. They do not become credentials of this website.
Destination and timing
Name the US city, warehouse or port, requested timing and any site restriction that can affect hazardous-material handling. Final classification follows the exact SDS, applicable regulations and carrier requirements. This matching desk does not issue a UN number or a shipping paper.
Optional target budget should identify currency and whether the figure is per kilogram, per package or for the whole order. High-end, mid-range, budget or undecided is a buyer preference about documentation intensity and service, not a rating we have verified. Compare product subtotal, packaging, samples, testing, freight, duties and destination charges only when each quotation states those lines. No savings percentage is inferred from competitor marketing pages.
