Obtaining

Technical potassium hydroxide (caustic potash) manufactured by electrolysis of potassium chloride.

Application

Technical potassium hydroxide is used for the production of fertilizers, synthetic rubber, electrolytes for batteries, chemicals, xanthates, salts, in the medical industry and in other industries.

Safety requirements

Potassium hydroxide is non-flammable and explosion proof. It is a class 2 substance.

Packing

A solution of potassium hydroxide is poured into clean steel containers or barrels with a capacity of 100, 200 and 275 liters.

Solid potassium hydroxide is packed in dry steel drums with a capacity of 50–180 dm і.

Product in the form of flakes may be packed in steel drums with a capacity of 50–180 dm і with polyethylene liner or plastic bags.
