Potassium silicate

Description:
Potassium silicate, with the CAS number 1312-76-1, is an inorganic compound composed of potassium, silicon, and oxygen. It typically appears as a white or colorless solid and is soluble in water, forming an alkaline solution. This compound is known for its glassy texture and can exist in various forms, including both hydrated and anhydrous states. Potassium silicate is primarily used in agriculture as a fertilizer and pest control agent, promoting plant growth and enhancing resistance to diseases. Additionally, it serves as a binder in the production of ceramics and as a protective coating in construction materials due to its water-repellent properties. Its alkaline nature makes it useful in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of soaps and detergents. Safety considerations include handling it with care, as it can cause irritation to the skin and eyes. Overall, potassium silicate is valued for its multifunctional properties across agricultural and industrial sectors.

  • Silicic acid, potassium salt

    CAS:
    <p>Silicic acid is a nutrient for plants. It is an inorganic substance that can be found naturally in the earth and is used as a control agent when applied to soil, or as a treatment in hydroponics. Silicic acid is soluble in water and can be mixed with other substances, such as potassium salt. The type of silicic acid used depends on the plant's needs, such as its growth phase. Silicates are also influential on the environment and may have an effect on temperatures and pH levels. The use of silicate has been shown to have beneficial effects when it comes to controlling plant diseases because it prevents bacteria from spreading through the plant tissue.</p>
