Potassium Acetate is white crystalline powder. It is deliquescent and tastes salty. Relative density is 1.570. Melting point is 292℃. Highly soluble in water, ethanol and carbinol, but insoluble in aether.
Application
1)Potassium acetate is a chemical used as an analytical reagent to adjust the pH.
2)Can also be used as a desiccant
3)Manufacturing transparent glass
4)Fabric and paper softener
5)Pharmaceutical industry: used as a buffer, diuretic
6)It can also be used as an anti-icing substance, replacing chlorides such as calcium chloride and magnesium chloride. It has less erosion and corrosive effects on the soil, especially for deicing of airport runways.
7)Food additives (preservation and control of acidity).
