Potassium Hydroxide ACS

Buy Potassium Hydroxide ACS (1310-58-3) MF: KOH | MW: 56.11. Get High Quality Potassium Hydroxide ACS (1310-58-3) from ChemieR.

Potassium hydroxide ACS is a strong, inorganic base that appears as a white, hygroscopic (water-absorbing) solid. Its chemical formula is KOH. Potassium hydroxide ACS is an inorganic salt mainly used as a precursor to synthesize other potassium compounds such as potassium acetate, potassium bicarbonate and potassium carbonate. On a commercial scale, it is synthesized by the electrolysis of potassium chloride. It is soluble in water, forming a strong alkaline solution. Potassium HydroxideACS is an inorganic compound commonly referred to as Caustic Potash or Potash lye. It is a protypical strong base.In its pure form, potassium hydroxide is odorless, but it can absorb carbon dioxide from the air, leading to the formation of potassium carbonate and the release of heat. Potassium hydroxide ACS grade is suitable for many laboratory and industrial applications.
