Potassium hydroxide

Description

USES

Potassium Hydroxideis generally immediately available in most volumes. High purity,submicron and nanopowderforms may be considered. Hydroxide, the OH-anion composed of an oxygen atom bonded to ahydrogenatom, is commonly present in nature and is one of the most widely studied molecules in physical chemistry.Hydroxide compoundshave diverse properties and uses, from base catalysis to detection of carbon dioxide. In a watershed 2013 experiment, scientists atJILA (the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics)achievedevaporative cooling of compoundsfor the first time using hydroxide molecules, a discovery that may lead to new methods of controllingchemicalreactions and could impact a range of disciplines, including atmospheric science andenergyproduction technologies. American Elements produces to many standard grades when applicable, including Mil Spec (military grade); ACS, Reagent and Technical Grade; Food, Agricultural and Pharmaceutical Grade; Optical Grade,USPandEP/BP(European Pharmacopoeia/British Pharmacopoeia)and follows applicableASTMtesting standards.Typical and custompackagingis available. Additional technical,researchand safety (MSDS) information is available as is aReference Calculatorfor converting relevant units of measurement.
