FAQs

What is potassium hydroxide 30% (w/v) tech grade used for?

Potassium hydroxide 30% (w/v), technical grade, is used in industrial and technical applications that require a strong alkaline solution. Common applications include chemical manufacturing, process chemistry, cleaning operations, and processes requiring high-volume potassium hydroxide for consistent base strength.

What does a 30% (w/v) concentration mean?

A 30% (w/v) concentration means the solution contains 30 grams of potassium hydroxide per 100 milliliters. This provides a highly alkaline, predictable solution suitable for large-scale industrial processes that require controlled reactivity and consistent chemical performance.

What does technical grade indicate for this product?

Technical grade indicates the potassium hydroxide is suitable for industrial and technical use rather than high-purity analytical applications. It meets specifications appropriate for manufacturing, processing, and bulk chemical use where ultra-trace impurity control is not required.

Why is this product supplied in a 200 L drum?

The 200 L drum format supports high-volume industrial operations that require bulk chemical supply. This packaging reduces the need for frequent reordering, improves handling efficiency, and supports continuous processing in manufacturing or large-scale technical environments.

How should potassium hydroxide 30% tech grade be handled and stored?

Potassium hydroxide is highly corrosive and requires appropriate PPE, including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and protective clothing. Store the drum in compatible containers away from acids and moisture. Always follow the Safety Data Sheet and site-specific safety procedures.
