Product Description
Caustic Potash Flakes (KOH), produced by Gujarat Alkalies and Chemicals Limited (GACL), are white, solid potassium hydroxide flakes. With the chemical formula KOH, it's made by electrolysis of potassium chloride. The flakes contain essential compounds like potassium ions (K+) and hydroxide ions (OH-), crucial for neutralization, saponification, and chemical synthesis. Used across industries such as agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and soap manufacturing, its benefits include strong alkalinity for cleaning, pH regulation, and water treatment. Available in 25-50 kg packaging, Caustic Potash Flakes enhance processes, improving efficiency and product quality, making it essential in chemical formulations and industrial applications.
Versatile Industrial Applications
Caustic Potash Flakes are an essential ingredient across multiple sectors, including textile manufacturing, soap and detergent production, pharmaceuticals, fertilizers, petroleum processing, and the food industry. Their role ranges from acting as a strong base in chemical synthesis to functioning as a cleaning agent and pH adjuster in several industrial operations.
Quality and Stability Assured
Produced by GACL, these flakes exhibit a minimum potassium hydroxide assay of 90%, ensuring high purity and efficacy. The product is rigorously tested to limit contaminants like chloride, potassium carbonate, and heavy metals. Stored under normal, dry conditions in tightly sealed packaging, the flakes maintain their stability and performance even over prolonged periods.
Safe and Secure Packaging
The flakes are supplied in durable HDPE bags with inner liners-available in 25 kg and 50 kg sizes-designed to protect the product from moisture and prevent contamination. This reliable packaging ensures easy handling, transportation, and storage, reducing risks and maintaining chemical integrity throughout the supply chain.
FAQ's of Caustic Potash Flakes GACL:
Q: How are Caustic Potash Flakes GACL typically used in various industries?
A: Caustic Potash Flakes GACL are widely utilized for manufacturing soaps, detergents, fertilizers, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and photographic chemicals. In addition, they act as pH regulators in processes and are employed in petroleum refining, textile processing, and food-related applications owing to their high alkalinity and solubility.Q: What safety measures should be taken when handling Caustic Potash Flakes?
A: Due to their highly corrosive nature (Risk Phrase R35: Causes severe burns), it is vital to wear appropriate protective gear such as gloves, goggles, and suitable clothing (Safety Phrases S26-36/37/39-45). In case of contact with eyes or skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention if needed.Q: When and how should Caustic Potash Flakes be stored to maintain stability?
A: Store the flakes in a tightly closed container, in a well-ventilated, dry area, and keep them away from acids and moisture. Under such conditions, the product remains stable and retains its quality. Proper storage minimizes risks of contamination and hazardous reactions.Q: Where does Caustic Potash Flakes GACL find the greatest benefit in industrial usage?
A: Their high purity and strong alkalinity make them particularly beneficial in sectors requiring strict quality control and reliable pH regulation, such as soap manufacturing, water treatment, and food processing. Their versatility enhances process efficiency and product consistency.Q: What is the process for dissolving Caustic Potash Flakes for industrial use?
A: Caustic Potash Flakes dissolve rapidly and completely in water (111g/100ml at 20C), creating a strongly basic solution. Always add the flakes slowly to water, stirring constantly to avoid excessive heat buildup and splashing, and never add water to the flakes to prevent violent reactions.Q: How does GACL ensure the quality and purity of its Caustic Potash Flakes?
A: GACL's Caustic Potash Flakes are manufactured to IS 8192:1987 standards, maintaining a minimum 90% KOH content. Strict quality checks are in place for contaminants like chlorides, potassium carbonate, silicate, iron, and heavy metals, ensuring compliance with industrial-grade requirements.Tell us about your requirement
