POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE KOH
Introduction of Potassium Hydroxide
Potassium hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the formula KOH, and is commonly called caustic potash.Along with sodium hydroxide (NaOH), this colorless solid is a prototypical strong base. It has many industrial and niche applications, most of which exploit its caustic nature and its reactivity toward acids. An estimated 700,000 to 800,000 tonnes were produced in 2005. About 100 times more NaOH than KOH is produced annually. KOH is noteworthy as the precursor to most soft and liquid soaps, as well as numerous potassium-containing chemicals. It is a white solid that is dangerously corrosive. Most commercial samples are ca. 90% pure, the remainder being water and carbonates.

Our Factories
Are located in Tianjin and Shandong Province,which was only Caustic Soda Plants formerly. As the scales of company continued to expand from 2005 to 2016,in order to establish and improve the management mechanism of enterprises to adapt to the growing market demand,we finally established a modern company business model in 2016.
