Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is produced by combining hydrogen gas and chlorine gas in the presence of a catalyst, usually a metal, such as platinum or rhodium. It reacts with many metals like magnesium, zinc, and iron to produce hydrogen gas and metal chloride salts. It also reacts with many organic compounds, such as alcohols and amines, to form chloride salts and other reaction products. It can be neutralized by bases, such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH), to form water and salt. It is a key component of gastric acid, which helps to break down proteins and other nutrients in the stomach. It activates pepsin, an enzyme that digests proteins and helps to maintain the pH level of the stomach.

HCl is a strong, colorless, and highly corrosive acidic solution with a pungent odor. It is a highly reactive liquid that can react violently with many materials, such as metals, organic compounds, and other acids. It has a boiling point of -85°C and a melting point of -114°C. It is highly soluble in water and forms a clear and colorless solution. 

The increasing use of HCl in the oil and gas industry to remove scale and other deposits from wellheads, pipelines, and equipment represents one of the major factors bolstering the market growth around the world. Moreover, the rising usage of HCl in the mining industry to extract metals from ores and control pH levels in the processing of minerals is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, the growing utilization of HCl in water treatment to control pH levels and reduce the growth of bacteria and algae is influencing the market positively. Apart from this, the increasing adoption of HCl in the processing of leather to remove hair, flesh, and other impurities is creating a positive outlook for the market.
