CAS 1310-58-3

Potassium hydroxide, (K(OH))

Description:

Potassium hydroxide (KOH), also known as caustic potash, is a strong alkaline compound characterized by its white, solid form, which is highly soluble in water, resulting in an exothermic reaction. It is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air, and it readily dissociates in aqueous solutions to release potassium ions (K⁺) and hydroxide ions (OH⁻). KOH is commonly used in various applications, including as a strong base in chemical manufacturing, in the production of biodiesel, and as a pH regulator in various industrial processes. It is also utilized in the food industry as a food additive and in the production of soaps and detergents. Due to its caustic nature, potassium hydroxide can cause severe chemical burns upon contact with skin or mucous membranes, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures. Its CAS number, 1310-58-3, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory frameworks.

Potassium hydroxide

CAS: 1310-58-3

Potassium hydroxide is a chemical compound that is used in wastewater treatment. It reacts with the organic matter in the water to form potassium carbonate and water vapor. The reaction mechanism of potassium hydroxide was studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the surface methodology. Potassium hydroxide has been shown to be effective against infectious diseases such as cholera, malaria, and typhoid fever because it can neutralize acids produced by these bacteria. The linear calibration curve for potassium hydroxide was found to have high resistance, making it an excellent analytical method for measuring this substance.
