      Product Detail  


    Product Name: Potassium Hydroxide (commonly abbreviated as KOH)
    Chemical Formula: KOH
    CAS Number: 1310-58-3

    Physical Properties

    • Appearance: White or colorless crystalline solid. It is highly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air and eventually dissolves into a liquid puddle (deliquescent). Commercial forms often appear as flakes, pellets, or granules.
    • Odor: Odorless.
    • Melting Point: Approximately 360 °C.
    • Boiling Point: Around 1,327 °C.
    • Density: ~2.04 g/cm³ at 20 °C.
    • Solubility: Highly exothermic dissolution in water (releases significant heat). It is also soluble in ethanol, glycerol, and methanol, but practically insoluble in ether and non-polar solvents.

    Chemical Properties

    • Strong Alkalinity: KOH is a very strong base. Aqueous solutions are highly caustic and corrosive, capable of causing severe burns to skin, eyes, and mucous membranes.
    • Neutralization: Reacts vigorously with acids to form potassium salts and water.
    • Saponification: Reacts with fats and oils to produce glycerol and potassium soaps (soft soaps).
    • Reactivity with Metals & Non-metals: Reacts violently with water, acids, and certain metals (like aluminum and zinc), releasing flammable hydrogen gas.
    • Carbon Dioxide Absorption: Readily absorbs CO₂ from the air to form potassium carbonate (K₂CO₃), so it must be stored in tightly sealed containers.

    Key Applications

    • Soap & Detergent Manufacturing: Widely used to produce soft, liquid, or paste soaps, as well as various industrial detergents and cleaning agents.
    • Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a crucial reagent and catalyst in organic synthesis, including the production of biodiesel (transesterification), pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals.
    • Electrolyte in Batteries: Used as the alkaline electrolyte in nickel-cadmium (Ni-Cd), nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH), and alkaline batteries due to its high electrical conductivity.
    • Industrial Cleaning: Formulated into heavy-duty alkaline cleaners for degreasing metals, cleaning dairy equipment, and unclogging drains.
    • Food Industry: Used as a food additive (E525) for pH control, peeling fruits and vegetables, and processing cocoa and chocolate.
    • Other Uses: Applied in water treatment, textile processing (mercerizing cotton), and as a desiccant or CO₂ absorbent in laboratory and industrial settings.
