A
new research report by Transparency Market Research offers a
comprehensive evaluation of the global Potassium
Carbonate
Market. The
study, titled “Potassium
Carbonate Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth,
Trends, and Forecast 2016 - 2023”,
is available for sale on the firm’s website.
Potassium
carbonate occurs as a white powder or granules that are soluble in
water. It forms a strong alkaline solution when mixed in water.
Potassium carbonate is an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide. It
is known to be the chief constituent of potash and refined pearl ash
or tartar. The other terms by which potassium carbonate is known
include pearl ash, carbonate of potash, salt of wormwood, salt of
tartar and dipotassium carbonate. Potassium carbonate melts at 891
degree celcius and is insoluble in alcohol. It is available in
various grades that include food grade, industrial grade, light and
heavy density among others.

Potassium
carbonate is produced commercially by electrolysis of potassium
chloride, which is further carbonated with the help of carbon dioxide
forming the end product potassium carbonate. This potassium carbonate
is further used in the manufacturing of other potassium compounds. In
its aqueous form, potassium chloride is used to remove carbon dioxide
from ammonia production synthesis gas in the fertilizer industry.
Potassium carbonate neutralizes acids exothermally to form salts and
water. It reacts with specific metals such as zinc and aluminium to
form oxides of hydroxides of the metal and even of gaseous hydrogen.
It is also said to initiate polymerization in the polymerizable
organic compounds especially in epoxides. It serves as a catalyst for
most of the reactions and reacts when heated above 84 degree celcius
with aqueous solutions of reducing sugars.
The
various applications of potassium carbonate include in the
manufacturing of china products, glass and soap, to make a safe
electrolyte for production of oxyhydrogen which is the commonly used
electrolyte, as a buffer agent in the manufacture of wine or mead,
used for softening hard water, used as a suppressant in extinguishing
fryers, used in gunpowder as a stable source of energy, used as an
ingredient in welding fluxes and arc welding rods and as an animal
feed ingredient to satisfy requirement of potassium of broiler
breeds.
The
growing demand for potassium carbonate from the glass industry is
driving the potassium carbonate market. The glass industry is the
largest consumer of potassium carbonate in manufacturing specialty
glasses that also include television tunes among other glass
products. The other industries which are anticipated to boost demand
for potassium carbonate include pharmaceutical that include potassium
carbonate in manufacturing medicines and agricultural where it is
used as a fertilizer for crops that are sensitive to chloride ions.
Health
hazard is the major factor that may hamper the market growth of
potassium carbonate in the near future. Potassium carbonate is known
to be strong irritant to eyes and skin. It is harmful if swallowed,
it may cause burns from mouth to stomach. If ingested in large
amounts can lead to ulcerations, vomiting and death from shock.
