POTASSIUM HYDROXIDE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Potassium hydroxide (KOH) is a white, highly caustic solid used in various industrial applications, including the manufacture of soaps, detergents, and as a chemical reagent. It is also employed in the production of biodiesel, fertilizers, and as a pH adjuster in water treatment processes. Potassium hydroxide is highly alkaline and can cause severe skin and eye burns upon contact. Proper handling requires the use of comprehensive protective equipment, including gloves, goggles, and face shields. Storage should be in corrosion-resistant containers, away from incompatible substances like acids. Disposal must follow local regulations to prevent environmental contamination. Potassium hydroxide is valued for its versatility and effectiveness in providing essential alkaline properties for numerous industrial processes.
