Potassium carbonate is an inorganic substance with a chemical formula of K2CO3, a molecular weight of 138.206, a density of 2.428g/cm3, and a melting point of 891°C. Soluble in water, the aqueous solution is alkaline, insoluble in ethanol. Strong hygroscopicity, it can absorb carbon dioxide and moisture when exposed to the air, and convert it into potassium bicarbonate. It should be sealed and packaged. With the continuous development of high-tech, the application of potassium carbonate in the fields of detergent auxiliaries, monosodium glutamate, and food is also expanding. Potassium carbonate is one of the important basic inorganic chemical, pharmaceutical and light industrial raw materials
In the inorganic industry, it is used to manufacture potassium sodium tartrate, potassium aluminum fluoride, potassium thiocyanate, and titanium dioxide. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used to manufacture long-acting sulfonamides, progesterone, estradiol benzoate and other drugs. In the glass enamel industry, it is used to prepare enamel powder to enhance its leveling properties. It is added to glass to act as a flux and improve the transparency and refractive index of glass. In the dye industry, it is used to manufacture indantil, disperse red 3B, and vat gray M. In the printing and dyeing industry, it is used for printing and dyeing of vat dyes and whitening of ice dyeing. In the rubber industry, it is used to manufacture 4010 antioxidants. In the wool, linen and cotton industry, it is used for scouring cotton cloth and degreasing wool.
Potassium carbonate is one of the important basic inorganic chemical, pharmaceutical and light industrial raw materials. It is mainly used in the production of optical glass, welding rods, electron tubes, television picture tubes, light bulbs, printing and dyeing, dyes, inks, photographic chemicals, sodium carbonate, polyester, explosives, electroplating, leather making, ceramics, building materials, crystals, potassium soaps and drugs. Used as gas adsorbent, dry powder fire extinguishing agent, rubber antioxidant. Also used to remove carbon dioxide from fertilizer synthesis gas. Can also be used as potassium fertilizer. With the continuous development of high-tech, the application of potassium carbonate in detergent additives, monosodium glutamate, food and other fields is also expanding.
Potassium carbonate is mainly used to make potassium glass, potassium soap and other inorganic chemicals, as well as to remove hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from industrial gases. It is also used in welding rods, ink manufacturing, printing and dyeing industries, etc.
