the above definition of "fosfatazione" is taken from De Mauro and directly refers to phosphoric acid, hence my proposed translation. Fosfatazione is the process, fosfatante is the product/agent.
agree Kimberly Wastler : In this case, the question specifically refers to pickling, a process requiring an acidic solution.
