Details

Potassium Hydroxide Pellets ACS/FCC/NF

Potassium Hydroxide , also known as lye, is a strong base having the chemical formula KOH. It is also termed as Caustic Potash, Potash Lye, and Potash Hydrate. It is available in pellets, flakes, and powders. It has a wide range of applications in chemical, industrial, and manufacturing processes. It is also employed in making a variety of potassium compounds. The ACS Grade is typically equal to the reagent grade and is suitable for analytical and research applications to obtain reliable, repetitive, and consistent results. Additionally, ACS Grade chemicals can be used in food and medicines.
