Potassium Hydroxide Lab Grade 

  • pH Regulation: Used as a strong base to adjust and maintain the pH levels in chemical solutions and reactions.
  • Titration: Employed in acid-base titrations to determine the concentration of acidic substances.
  • Buffer Solutions: Integral in preparing buffer solutions that resist changes in pH, crucial for various biological and chemical experiments.
  • Soap Making: Utilized in the production of potassium soaps, which are softer and more soluble than sodium-based soaps.
  • Chemical Synthesis: Acts as a reagent in various organic synthesis processes, including the production of biodiesel.
  • Cleaning Agent: Effective in cleaning glassware and laboratory equipment due to its ability to dissolve grease and organic residues.
  • Electrolyte: Used in alkaline batteries as an electrolyte, facilitating the conduction of electricity.

  • Potassium hydroxide (KOH) pellets are a crucial laboratory reagent known for their high solubility in water, producing a strong alkaline solution. They are hygroscopic, readily absorbing moisture and CO₂ from the air, necessitating storage in airtight containers. KOH pellets are used in various applications including pH regulation, saponification in soap making, and as a desiccant. They are highly reactive with acids, forming potassium salts and water. Safety is paramount as KOH is caustic, capable of causing severe skin and eye burns, thus requiring proper protective gear during handling. These pellets are favored for their high purity and consistent performance in analytical and preparative chemistry tasks.
