Potassium Hydrocarbonate

Potassium Hydrocarbonate 99%min is our strong item ,and have passed through ISO9001:2008Quality Management System Certification.

Molecular Formula: KHCO3                             Molecular Weight:100.12

Property: Potassium Bicarbonate is colorless and transparent crystal. The

relative density is 2.17. It is stable in the air. It is soluble in water, forming a

slightly alkaline solution, but insoluble in alcohol. The solution can not react

with magnesium salt yielding precipitate of alkaline salt. It begins to decompose

at 100°C and completely decomposes and turns into Potassium Carbonate

losing carbon dioxide and water at 200°C.
