Hi, Ela. Sorry, but I do not quite understand the question yet. What do you wish the sulphamic acid to attack, and what do you wish it to not damage? Are you wanting to use it as a pickle for rusty steel, for example, and you want it to attack the rust but not attack the steel? (You would not use it unless you want it to corrode something). Thanks.

Regards,

The product could be applied to all metals except the zinc and its alloys. For the zinc and its alloys what you could recommend us?

CHARACTERISTICS
Aspect: whitish powder
Content in sulfamic acid ⇦this on eBay or Amazon [affil links] > 95%
Solubility in the water: 20% at 15 °C
pH (10% of solution) : < 1
