Industrial grade lightweight potassium carbonate, glass rubber printing and dyeing additive 99%
Potassium carbonate (also known as potassium alkali) is an inorganic substance with the chemical formula K2CO3 and a molecular weight of 138.206. It is a white crystalline powder with a density of 2.428g/cm3 and a melting point of 891℃. Easy to dissolve in water, aqueous solution is alkaline, insoluble in ethanol, etc. It appears as a white powder or fine crystalline particle and is an important inorganic chemical raw material. It has strong hygroscopicity, is prone to clumping, is soluble in water, and the aqueous solution is alkaline. This product has strong hygroscopicity and can absorb carbon dioxide and water when exposed to air, transforming into potassium bicarbonate. It should be sealed and packaged.
