Potassium Hydroxide (Caustic Potash) 1KG Avis

Potassium Hydroxide (Caustic Potash) 1KG Potassium Hydroxide, also known as Caustic Potash, is a highly alkaline ingredient commonly used in cosmetic and soap-making applications to adjust pH and enable the saponification process in liquid and soft soap production. It reacts with oils and fats to create potassium-based soaps, which are typically softer or fully liquid compared to sodium-based soaps. Properties Highly effective alkaline pH adjuster Essential for liquid soap saponification Water soluble and highly reactive Helps create soft and liquid soap formulations Strong cleansing formulation support Suitable for professional formulation use Fast dissolving in water Uses Liquid Soap Making: As required for saponification calculations Soft Soap Formulations: As required for saponification calculations pH Adjustment: 0.1–2% Cleaning Products: 1–10% Warnings For external use in finished formulations only. Corrosive substance — can cause severe burns and eye damage. Always add potassium hydroxide to water, never water to potassium hydroxide. Wear appropriate protective equipment including gloves and eye protection when handling. Keep out of reach of children. Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Potassium Hydroxide is considered 'Dangerous Goods' (UN1813) for transportation and restrictions for shipping apply. Notes Highly water soluble. Generates heat when dissolved in water. Primarily used in liquid and soft soap making where no active potassium hydroxide remains after proper saponification. Should be handled with extreme care during formulation. We cannot 'post' potassium hydroxide, we have to send it by independent carrier, so a minimum charge applies. Include it as part of a larger order to ensure shipping charges are kept to our standard rates.
