Product Description: Used extensively in agriculture as a fertilizer to supply potassium, an essential nutrient for plant growth. It helps improve crop yield and quality by enhancing disease resistance and drought tolerance. In the medical field, it is administered intravenously to treat severe potassium deficiency, a condition known as hypokalemia, which can affect muscle and nerve function. It is also a key component in saline solutions for rehydration and electrolyte balance. In the food industry, it serves as a low-sodium alternative to table salt, aiding in reducing sodium intake while maintaining flavor. Additionally, it is utilized in water softening systems to replace calcium and magnesium ions, preventing scale buildup in pipes and appliances. In industrial applications, it is used in metal processing, oil drilling fluids, and as a de-icing agent on roads during winter.
