Product description:
Potassium Chloride is a metal halide composed of potassium and chloride. Potassium maintains intracellular tonicity, is required for nerve conduction, cardiac, skeletal and smooth muscle contraction, production of energy, the synthesis of nucleic acids, maintenance of blood pressure and normal renal function. This agent has potential antihypertensive effects and when taken as a nutritional supplement may prevent hypokalemia.
Potassium chloride appears as white colorless cubic crystals. Strong saline taste. (NTP, 1992)
Potassium chloride is a metal chloride salt with a K(+) counterion. It has a role as a fertilizer. It is a potassium salt and an inorganic chloride.
Apppication:
1) Mainly used in the inorganic industry, it is the basic raw material for the manufacture of various potassium salts such as potassium hydroxide, potassium sulfate, potassium nitrate, potassium chlorate, and red strontium potassium.
2) Nutrition enhancers; gelling agents; salt substitutes; yeast food; it is similar to table salt to use as flavour enhancers for the agricultural product, livestock forming product, condiment, can, convenient food and so on, And also to use as enhance the potassium to prepare athletes beverage.
