Potassium Carbonate (Powder/Granular)
We are manufacturing Potassium Carbonate in Technical, Pure & LR Grade.
These Products are available in 50 kgs Bag/Drum.
Potassium carbonate (K2CO3) is a white salt, soluble in water (insoluble in ethanol, which forms a strongly alkaline solution. It can be made as the product of potassium hydroxide's absorbent reaction with carbon dioxide. It is deliquescent, often appearing a damp or wet solid. Potassium carbonate is used in the production of soap and glass.
CAS No. 584-08-7
