Potassium Persulfate

Potassium Persulfate

Description:

Potassium persulfate is a white, odorless crystalline powder that is sparingly soluble in cold water but dissolves better in warm water. It is commonly used as a polymerization initiator and in chemical synthesis due to its strong oxidative properties.

Features

• Strong Oxidizing Agent – Used in polymerization and chemical reactions.

• Stable in Dry Conditions – Maintains effectiveness when stored properly.

• High Purity – Available in industrial and analytical grades.

• Non-Flammable – Does not ignite but can accelerate combustion of other substances.

• Solubility – Dissolves better in warm water than in cold.

Uses

• Polymerization Initiator – Used in the production of synthetic rubber and resins.

• Water Treatment – Acts as an oxidizing agent in cleaning and electroplating processes.

• Disinfectant & Bleaching Agent – Used in fabric bleaching and sanitation.

• Metal Etching – Helps in oxidation and etching of metals.

• Analytical Reagent – Used in chemical analysis, such as determining manganese content in steel.
