Potassium Acetate

Basic Technical Parameters

This product features fixed chemical and physical index data for industrial and food-grade application batch verification. The core technical indicators include chemical name Potassium Acetate, molecular formula C₂H₃KO₂, molecular weight 98.14, and CAS registration number 127-08-2. All parameters comply with standard industrial chemical identification specifications for global procurement inspection and batch traceability.

Physical & Chemical Properties

Potassium Acetate presents as white crystalline powder with natural deliquescence and salty taste. The 1mol/L aqueous solution delivers a stable pH value ranging from 7.0 to 9.0, ensuring controllable alkalinity and neutralization performance in formulation applications. The relative density (d425) is 1.570, with a fixed melting point at 292℃.

It features graded solubility for precise formula deployment. In water, the solubility reaches 235g/100mL at 20℃ and rises to 492g/100mL at 62℃. Solubility in ethanol is 33g/100mL, and 24.24g/100mL in methanol at 15℃. The product is insoluble in ether, enabling accurate solvent screening for industrial production processes.

Industrial Application Scope

The product serves as a functional auxiliary material for industrial and food processing scenarios, with stable buffering, neutralizing, preservative and color fixation properties. It is widely applied to protect the natural pigment activity of animal and plant raw materials, stabilizing product color uniformity and extending the shelf life of finished products in downstream formulations. Its stable chemical properties ensure consistent performance in continuous batch production.

Standard Packaging Specification

Standard packaging adopts a double-layer structure for product purity protection and transportation safety. The inner layer is a food and industrial-grade polyethylene bag for moisture isolation and pollution prevention, while the outer layer is a reinforced compound plastic woven bag for mechanical damage resistance. Each package has a fixed net weight of 25kg, meeting international bulk procurement and container loading specifications.

Independent storage and transportation are mandatory. The product must be completely separated from toxic, hazardous and pollutive substances in all storage and transit links to ensure product purity and compliance with industrial safety production standards.
