English term or phrase: acidic polysulfonic
"Sodium hydroxide (Ph Eur) is included in the formulation to neutralise the acidic polysulfonic acid gelling agent and maintain a high pH during storage since at this pH the sodium chlorite will not decompose to chlorine dioxide, chlorate and chloride ions."

Alguma sugestão para "acidic polysulfonic acid gelling agent"? Creio ser um agente gelificante de um ácido, mas tenho dúvidas.

Muito obrigada.

neutral  Fernando Domeniconi: As duas primeiras referências do seu link são justamente para explicar que é errado dizer ácido acídico. As demais usam acídico (=ácido) como adjetivo para outros compostos ou termos.

agree  Heloísa Ferdinandt: Eu diria ácido acídico polissulfônico.
21 mins

neutral  liz askew: How odd, your site only backs up "acido acidico", but not "acido polisulfonico acidico". Could you supply a reference with the whole phrase?? I have been unable to find one when researching this myself..Thanks.
