    HF isn’t that “strong” of an acid. It’s very dangerous due to it being a pretty bad contact poison.

      The post literally says dangerous though. And there are way “stronger” acids than sulfuric acid too so the post still doesn’t make sense

        Oh, I wasn’t disagreeing with you. The 2 times I’ve used HF was enough for me. While sulfuric is definitely not the strongest, many lists ranking the “strength of acids” have it on top. I assume that’s where OP got that idea.

        Someone else posted Fluoroantimonic acid, which seems like the one (at least for Hammett acidity function).
