Oxalic Acid can Work Wonders for You
Not all acids are carbon copies in their chemical structure. Oxalic acid is a perfect example of this. Considered the strongest of all acids in organic compounds, it can also be combined with sodium, magnesium, calcium, iron or potassium to create oxalates. Used in the construction and joinery applications as a stripper and cleaner, oxalic acid is also present in some of the food that we eat. A real variable on being resourceful.
Oxalic acid looks to be our earth’s way of removing stains from the trees that are strong and resistant to the damaging forces of weather. It is also really effective for treating green oak timber. A solution of oxalic acid and water can bleach nasty looking stains and marks that can spoil the appearance of your wood for beams or various projects. Graying timber, caused by lengthy exposure to the wind and rain can make you feel that your timber is in need of replacing. If the material is solid and hard, try using a timber treatment of oxalic acid and water and watch how the chemical reaction transforms the wood’s color. A number of professional furniture restorers choose oxalic acid to treat and restore antique pieces by bleaching many items that have been discarded due to lack of care and left for rubbish. Boat workers keep a spray mixture on board to help to preserve the wood on deck.
A limited amount is recognised about oxalic acid’s use as a parasite killer but it’s true. The varroa mite loves the fluid made by adult bees, their pupae and lavae. This parasite causes noticeable wing defects on bees and the infection spreads across colonies until the mites reduce the bee population so seriously that the mites move in and the bees move out. Unusual as it may seem, it has been shown in evidence that oxalic acid kills up to 95% of the mites while keeping the bees’ honey at their unaffected levels. A mixture of 6% oxalic acid and sugar is all that is necessary to keep your bee hive clean and free from dangerous varroa mites.
This natural cleaner is especially tough on rust caused by moisture and outdoor elements on metal products. A few applications of oxalic acid are: pre-treating stainless steel, industrial rust removing from metals and tannin stain removal, also it is the best chemical on the market for rust. Some other popular uses of oxalic acid is in the purification of intermediate in pharmacy, a precipitator in rare earths processing and preparing and polishing stones and marble.
A valuable, all natural cleaner for elements caused by nature, oxalic acid can treat your lumber, clean your metals and protect your bee colony as no other. Mother Earth is more resourceful than you’d think when it comes to taking care of her own.
