Potassium Chloride

YIGYOOLY China supplied Potassium Chloride is an inorganic compound, white crystal, extremely salty in taste, odorless and non-toxic. Easy to dissolve in water, ether, glycerol, and alkalis, slightly soluble in ethanol, but insoluble in anhydrous ethanol, hygroscopic, and prone to clumping; The solubility in water increases rapidly with the increase of temperature, and often reacts with sodium salts to form new potassium salts through double decomposition. The properties are basically the same as sodium chloride, and potassium chloride can be used as a raw material for industrial preparation of metallic potassium. Electrolytic potassium chloride solution can be used to prepare caustic potassium, which can be precipitated by silver ions for chloride ions and by sodium tetraphenylborate for potassium ions.

Application

YIGYOOLY Potassium Chloride mainly is used in the inorganic industry, it is a basic raw material for manufacturing various potassium salts or alkalis such as potassium hydroxide, potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, potassium chlorate, potassium alum, etc.

YIGYOOLY Potassium Chloride is used as a diuretic and to prevent and treat potassium deficiency in the pharmaceutical industry.

YIGYOOLY Potassium Chloride is used to produce G salts, reactive dyes, etc.in the dye industry.

In agriculture, it is a type of potassium fertilizer. It has a fast fertilizer effect and can be directly applied to farmland, causing an increase in soil moisture and having a drought resistance effect. However, it is not suitable for use in saline alkali soil and crops such as tobacco, sweet potato, and sugar beet. Potassium chloride has a similar taste to sodium chloride (bitter),

YIGYOOLY Potassium Chloride is used as an additive for low sodium salts or mineral water.

In addition, it is also used to manufacture flame suppressants for gun muzzle or muzzle, steel heat treatment agents, and for photography. It can also be used in medicine, scientific applications, food processing, and salt to partially replace sodium chloride with potassium chloride to reduce the possibility of hypertension.

Storage & Note

YIGYOOLY Potassium Chloride shall be stored in a dry and vetilative warehouse, kept away from heat and moisture.
