Potassium hydroxide KOH White powder or flaky solid Widely used in various industries


Product Introduction:


Potassium hydroxide (chemical formula: KOH, formula: 56.11) is a white powder or flaky solid. Melting point 360-406 ℃, boiling point 1320-1324 ℃, relative density 2.044g/cm, flash point 52 ° F, refractive index n20/D1.421, vapor pressure 1mmHg (719 ℃). Strong alkalinity and corrosiveness. Highly susceptible to absorbing moisture from the air and deliquescence, absorbing carbon dioxide to form potassium carbonate. Dissolve in approximately 0.6 parts hot water, 0.9 parts cold water, 3 parts ethanol, and 2.5 parts glycerol. When dissolved in water, alcohol, or treated with acid, a large amount of heat is generated. The pH of the 0.1mol/L solution is 13.5. Moderate toxicity, LD50 (rat, oral) 1230mg/kg. Soluble in ethanol. It has extremely strong alkalinity and corrosiveness, and its properties are similar to caustic soda.
