Largest Supplier High Quality Low Price Food Grade Potassium Chloride KCl Cas 7447-40-7

Potassium chloride, agricultural potassium fertilizer, industrial raw material production additive

Potassium chloride (KCL) is a pure white or light yellow crystalline substance. The content of active ingredient K20 is usually around 60%. It is an inorganic compound that looks like table salt, odorless, and has a salty taste. 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.

Application of Potassium Chloride

1.In terms of chemical production, potassium chloride is the basic raw material for producing potassium salts such as potassium carbonate, potassium hydroxide, potassium chlorate, potassium nitrate, potassium sulfate, and potassium alum. It can also be used as a flame suppressant and as a component for preparing electrolytes in the electrolysis of magnesium chloride to produce metallic magnesium.

2.In the dye industry, potassium chloride is used to produce G salts and reactive dyes, and is also applied in the manufacturing of candle wicks, photography, electroplating, steel heat treatment agents, and other fields.

3.In agriculture, potassium chloride is mainly used as potassium fertilizer. In addition, potassium chloride can also be used to prepare buffer solutions for high-purity analysis such as drop analysis to determine platinum and calibration of silver nitrate standard solutions. Potassium chloride is also applied in fields such as emission spectroscopy analysis, chromatographic analysis, and preparation of culture media.
