Potassium hydroxide flakes 90% is a white, deliquescent solid in the form of flakes obtained by concentration of purified electrolytic potassium hydroxide solution.
Generally, there are two kind of potassium hydroxide for exorting. One is potassium hydroxide flakes 90% and another is potassium hydroxide solution 48%.
Tianjin Jiahengyuan, as a manufacturer of sodium hydroxide, have strategic relationship with potassium hydroxide manufacturer.
