Product Description
Potassium Hydroxide (KOH), a strong base, is a white, caustic compound with a chemical formula KOH. It plays a vital role in producing soaps, detergents, fertilizers, and biodiesel. Manufactured via electrolysis of potassium chloride, KOH exists in several grades, including technical and food grade. Its industrial uses span agriculture, pharmaceuticals, and chemical manufacturing. KOH reacts with acids to form potassium salts and water, making it essential in pH regulation. Typically packaged in moisture-resistant containers, its shelf life is indefinite when stored properly. KOH's versatility aids in cleaning, refining, and synthetic processes across various industries.
