Research Summary
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a strong alkaline compound commonly known as caustic potash. It exists as a white, odorless, and highly hygroscopic solid that readily absorbs moisture from the air. Produced through the electrolysis of potassium chloride solution, potassium hydroxide has diverse applications. It is widely used in industries such as chemical manufacturing, soap production, and the food industry. In chemical processes, it serves as a base and catalyst, while in soap-making, it is employed to saponify fats and oils. Potassium hydroxide is also utilized in the production of various potassium salts, fertilizers, and as a pH regulator in certain industries. Its caustic nature necessitates careful handling, and it is a key substance in the realm of chemical synthesis and industrial applications due to its strong alkaline properties.
