The fact that you've asked the question here instead of just firing up CHEMCATS means the answer is probably no. The sort of places that sell this sort of stuff generally do not sell it to the general public but only to other chemical companies (or college chemistry departments). (If you are with a college chemistry department or chemical company but for some reason don't have access to CHEMCATS, then do a literature search, find someone who's published a paper involving it, and drop them a line to ask where they got it.)
Carborane acid usually refers to pentaborane(9) hydride, which is a strong acid. It is not very soluble in water, but it can react to form hydrochloric acid and boron hydrides. The pH of carborane acid would be very low.
Carborane superacids are made by combining a carborane molecule, such as H(CHB11Cl11), with a Lewis acid like SbF5 or HF/SbF5. This creates a strong Brønsted acid that is more powerful than conventional mineral acids like sulfuric acid. The resulting carborane superacid has unique properties, making it a valuable catalyst for various chemical reactions.
The most reactive acid ever synthesized is likely carborane superacids. These acids are extremely strong and can be one trillion times more acidic than sulfuric acid. Carborane superacids can catalyze reactions that are not possible with conventional acids.
Yes, carborane super acid is extremely corrosive and can cause severe burns on skin upon contact. It is important to handle it with extreme caution and use appropriate safety measures, such as wearing personal protective equipment.
Carborane acid is the world's strongest acid, followed by fluorosulfonic acid. The acidity of carborane acid has been shown at least a million times stronger than concentrated sulfuric acid, and hundreds of times stronger than the previous record holder fluorosulfonic acid.

The molarity of carborane superacid will depend on the concentration of the acid solution. Carborane superacid is a strong acid with high acidity and is typically prepared in low concentrations due to its reactivity and potential hazards. Common concentrations for carborane superacid solutions range from 0.1 to 1 M.
Battery water is generally sulfuric acid and is a strong acid, but not the strongest acid. Carborane acid is the world's strongest acid, followed by fluorosulfonic acid. The acidity of carborane acid has been shown at least a million times stronger than concentrated sulfuric acid, and hundreds of times stronger than the previous record holder fluorosulfonic acid.

Are you perhaps referring to hydrochloric acid? If so, it is one of the strongist acids, with a pH of 2. However, there are stronger acids, such as carborane acid and fluorosulphuric acid.
Carborane acid is the world's strongest acid, followed by fluorosulfonic acid. The acidity of carborane acid has been shown at least a million times stronger than concentrated sulfuric acid, and hundreds of times stronger than the previous record holder fluorosulfonic acid.
The strongest acid is fluoroantimonic acid, which is a superacid. It is created by mixing hydrogen fluoride with antimony pentafluoride. Fluoroantimonic acid is over a billion times stronger than sulfuric acid.
Carborane superacids are generally considered more corrosive than fluoroantimonic acid. They are extremely strong acids that can catalyze many reactions, to an extent not achievable with fluoroantimonic acid alone.
According to Sam Kean, Carborane has a pH of -18 (see the Disappearing Spoon).
