Product Description:
Potassium formate is widely used as a de-icing agent for runways and roads due to its ability to lower the freezing point of water effectively. It is preferred over traditional salts because it is less corrosive to metals and less damaging to concrete, making it safer for infrastructure and vehicles. In the oil and gas industry, it serves as a key component in drilling fluids, where it helps stabilize shale formations and control wellbore pressures. Additionally, it is utilized as a buffering agent in various industrial processes and as a reducing agent in chemical synthesis. Its biodegradable nature also makes it an environmentally friendly choice in many applications.
