Potassium hydroxide KOH 1310-58-3; 71769-53-4 Chemical reagent; Making soaps, cleaners lubricants; Electroplating; Cellulose production
Basic information
Nature
1. Potassium hydroxide is a strong base that can be completely dissolved in water to produce potassium hydroxide solution. Its solution is alkaline and can neutralize acidic substances.
Potassium hydroxide is corrosive and can react with many organic and inorganic substances.
3. It can absorb moisture and quickly absorb carbon dioxide to form potassium carbonate.
Purpose
1. Potassium hydroxide is widely used in chemical laboratories as a commonly used chemical reagent, analytical reagent, for trace analysis of bismuth, cadmium, lithium, etc
2. It is used to make daily products such as soap, detergent and lubricant, as an absorber of carbon dioxide and water, a saponification agent, and for pharmaceutical and other industries.
3. Potassium hydroxide can also be used as an important raw material in industries such as electroplating, aluminum anodizing, cellulose production and coating preparation.
Security
Contact with skin and eyes may cause injury. Staff should take good protection, if accidentally touch the eyes, should immediately flush with plenty of running water. The working environment should have good ventilation conditions. Should be stored separately from flammable, combustible and acid. Steam is heavier than air and tends to gather in low places. Steam in an enclosed area explodes in response to fire. Store in dry and clean warehouse. Pay attention to moisture and rain immersion. Should be stored separately from flammable, combustible and acid.
Precautions and Transportation
Transportation precautions: Store in a cool, dry, and well ventilated warehouse. Stay away from sparks and heat sources. The humidity inside the warehouse should not exceed 85%. The packaging must be sealed and not damp. It should be stored separately from flammable materials, acids, etc., and should not be stored together. The storage area should be equipped with appropriate materials to contain leaked materials.
