Application
Potassium hydroxide solution may be used in the following processes:
- Depolymerization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) flakes.
- Synthesis of potassium bicarbonate and potassium carbonate.
- As an eluent in the nonsuppressor ion chromatography to separate and determine inorganic and organic anions.
- Saponification of fruit seed oil to determine tocopherols and tocotrienols.
General description
Potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution is a strong alkali widely used in chemical synthesis. Van Slyke apparatus and Hildebrand adsorption technique have been utilized to determine the solubility of oxygen in different concentration of KOH solution.
