Product Description

Potassium Hydroxide (KOH), commonly known as caustic potash, is a strong inorganic base supplied as white flakes or pellets. It is highly soluble in water with significant heat generation and is widely used in saponification, pH adjustment and chemical manufacturing.

Our technical grade KOH is produced to a minimum of 90% purity with low carbonate and chloride content. It is an important raw material for liquid potassium soaps, agrochemical formulations, pharmaceutical synthesis and various industrial processes.

Applications

  • Manufacture of liquid soaps and detergents
  • Production of potassium fertilizer solutions
  • pH adjustment in industrial and agricultural processes
  • Biodiesel production (transesterification catalyst)
  • Food industry (as E525 where approved)
  • Chemical synthesis and pharmaceutical manufacture
  • Electrochemical applications and battery electrolyte
