Description
Potassium Hydroxide, 10%, 2Oz is a chemical compound widely used in various industrial and laboratory applications. It is a highly caustic solution, primarily used as a strong alkaline agent. Potassium hydroxide is frequently employed in the production of soaps, detergents, and in chemical synthesis due to its ability to react with fatty acids to form soap. It is also used for cleaning and neutralizing acidic substances.
This solution is commonly used in laboratories for titration purposes and as a reagent in organic synthesis. Potassium hydroxide is essential in certain manufacturing processes, such as the production of biodiesel, where it catalyzes the transesterification reaction. It is utilized in the petroleum industry for refining and processing oil and gas.
In medical and clinical settings, potassium hydroxide is employed in diagnostic procedures, such as potassium hydroxide preparations for fungal testing. This chemical is capable of breaking down cell walls, making it easier to identify fungal elements under a microscope.
