Applications of Potassium Hydroxide

Potassium Hydroxide, Potassium hydroxide(KOH) is highly basic, forming strongly alkaline solutions in water and other polar solvents. These solutions are capable of deprotonating many acids, even weak ones.
Potassium hydroxide is used to make soft soap, in scrubbing and cleaning operations, as a mordant for woods, in dyes and colorants, and for absorbing carbon dioxide. Other principle uses of caustic potash are in the preparation of several potassium salts, acid-base titrations, and in orgainic sytheses. Also, KOH is an electrolyte in certain alkaline storage batteries and fuel cells. Potassium hydroxide is used in neutralization reactions to yield potassium salts. Aqueous potassium hydroxide is employed as the electrolyte in alkaline batteries based on nickel-cadmium and manganese dioxide-zinc. Alcoholic KOH solutions are also used as an effective method for cleaning glassware. KOH works well in the manufacture of biodiesel by catalyzing transesterification of the triglycerides in vegetable oil.
Potassium hydroxide has many different functions and uses.
1. It is primarily used as an intermediate in industrial manufacturing processes, such as the manufacture of fertilisers, potassium carbonate or other potassium salts and organic chemicals.
2. It is also used in the manufacture of detergents and in alkaline batteries.
3. Small-scale uses include drain cleaning products, paint removers and degreasing agents.
4. manufacture of liquid soap;
5. mordant for wood;
6. absorbing CO2;
7. mercerizing cotton;
8. paint and varnish removers;
9. electroplating, photoengraving and lithography;
10. printing inks;
11. in analytical chemistry and in organic syntheses.
12. Pharmaceutic aid (alkalizer).
