Detailed diagram of potassium carbonate

Potassium carbonate is an inorganic substance with the chemical formula K2CO3 and a molecular weight of 138.206. It is a white crystalline powder with a density of 2.428g/cm3 and a melting point of 891 ℃. Easy to dissolve in water, the aqueous solution is alkaline, and insoluble in ethanol, acetone, and ether. Strong hygroscopicity, can absorb carbon dioxide and water when exposed to air, and transform into potassium bicarbonate. It should be sealed and packaged.

Inorganic industry is used to manufacture potassium sodium tartrate, potassium aluminum fluoride, potassium thiocyanate, and titanium dioxide. The pharmaceutical industry is used to manufacture drugs such as long-acting sulfonamide, progesterone, cortisone, zhiacol, and estradiol benzoate. Glass enamel industry is used for the preparation of enamel powder to enhance its leveling ability, add it to glass to aid melting, and improve glass transparency and refractive index. The dye industry is used to manufacture Yin Dan Tu Lin, Disperse Red 3B, Reduced Grey M. The printing and dyeing industry is used for the whitening of vat dyes and ice dyeing. The rubber industry is used to manufacture 4010 anti-aging agents. The woolen linen cotton industry is used for cotton fabric cooking and wool degreasing.
Potassium carbonate is one of the important basic inorganic chemical, pharmaceutical, and light industry raw materials. It is mainly used in the production of optical glass, welding rods, electronic tubes, television tubes, light bulbs, printing and dyeing, dyes, inks, photographic drugs, foam alkali, polyester, explosives, electroplating, leather making, ceramics, building materials, crystals, potassium soap, and pharmaceuticals. Used as a gas adsorbent, dry powder fire extinguishing agent, and rubber anti-aging agent. It is also used to remove carbon dioxide from fertilizer synthesis gas. It can also be used as potassium containing fertilizer. With the continuous development of technology, the application of potassium carbonate in washing aids, monosodium glutamate, food and other fields is also expanding day by day.
Potassium carbonate is mainly used to manufacture 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 electrodes, ink manufacturing, printing and dyeing industries, and other fields.
