Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate, KH2PO4, Monopotassium Phosphate
Potassium dihydrogen phosphate formula is KH2PO4. When heated to 400 ºC, it melts into a transparent liquid and solidifies into opaque glassy potassium metaphosphate after cooling. It is stable in air, soluble in water and insoluble in ethanol. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used as buffer and culture agent in industry. It can also be used as a flavoring agent for bacterial culture and synthesis of sake. It is also the raw material for making potassium metaphosphate, the culture agent, fortifier, bulking agent and fermentation assistant of brewing yeast. In agriculture, potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used as high-efficiency phosphorus potassium compound fertilizer.
1. In agriculture, potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used as high-efficiency phosphorus potassium compound fertilizer, which is suitable for all kinds of soils and crops.
2. In industry, potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used as raw material for preparing potassium metaphosphate, culture agent, fortifier, bulking agent and fermentation assistant of brewing yeast.
3. In the food industry, potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used to manufacture bakeries, monosodium glutamate and fermentation powder.
4. In feed industry, potassium dihydrogen phosphate is mainly used as mineral element additive to supplement phosphorus and potassium, especially in fish feed.
