Potassium Hydroxide Youlide

Potassium hydroxide, caustic potash, Jiangsu ULTIMATE 90% potassium hydroxide, detergent potassium hydroxide, Guangdong ULTIMATE potassium hydroxide.

Product Introduction:

Name: Potassium hydroxide, caustic potash.

Origin Brand: Jiangsu ULTIMATE.

Content: 90%.

Packaging: 25KG/bag.

Appearance: White flake solid.

Characteristics: Highly deliquescent; when exposed to air, it easily absorbs carbon dioxide and moisture, gradually turning into potassium carbonate. Highly soluble in water, releasing a large amount of heat during dissolution. Strongly hygroscopic, capable of absorbing moisture from the air and dissolving.

Hazard: Potassium hydroxide is similar to sodium hydroxide, highly corrosive.

Product Applications:

In agriculture: Potassium hydroxide is used to adjust soil pH. It is used in the production of fertilizers to provide potassium for crops, especially those intolerant to chloride ions.

Chemical industry: Used to adjust the pH of chemical solutions, promote drying, and can serve as a desiccant to remove moisture from alkaline solvents.

Cosmetics industry: Potassium hydroxide is used in the manufacture of manicure products as it helps clean nails and dissolve cuticles; used in shaving products to aid in hair removal; and as a raw material in the production of lotions, shampoos, hair sprays, and other cosmetics, primarily as a pH adjuster and regulator.

Potassium Hydroxide Production Process:

Potassium hydroxide is produced by electrolyzing concentrated potassium chloride solution or by reacting potassium carbonate with milk of lime. Electrolysis method: Electrolysis of saturated potassium chloride solution yields potassium hydroxide, with the same principle as electrolyzing saturated brine.
