Properties:
Potassium carbonate (K₂CO₃) is a white granular powder that is highly soluble in water, forming a strongly alkaline solution. It is hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. Potassium carbonate is stable under normal conditions but may react with acids to release carbon dioxide. It is non-flammable and non-toxic.
Application:
Potassium carbonate is widely used in various industries. It is a key ingredient in the production of glass, ceramics, and soap. In the food industry, it is used as a buffering agent, leavening agent, and stabilizer. It is also utilized in the manufacture of fertilizers, dyes, and pharmaceuticals. Additionally, potassium carbonate is employed in fire extinguishers and as a drying agent in certain chemical processes.
Package and Storage:
25 KG/BAG or as per customer requirements.
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Keep the container tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. Avoid contact with strong acids to prevent hazardous reactions.
