Product Description: Potassium hydroxide is widely used in the production of soaps and detergents, where it acts as a saponifying agent to convert fats and oils into soap. It is also employed in the chemical industry for manufacturing various potassium compounds, such as potassium carbonate and potassium phosphates. In the food industry, it serves as a pH regulator and is used in processes like cocoa processing and food thickening. Additionally, it is utilized in the petroleum industry to remove acidic impurities from hydrocarbons. In agriculture, potassium hydroxide is applied as a fertilizer additive to provide potassium, an essential nutrient for plant growth. It also plays a role in battery manufacturing, particularly in alkaline batteries, where it functions as an electrolyte. Furthermore, it is used in cleaning and sanitation products due to its strong alkaline properties, effectively dissolving grease and organic materials.
