CAS 584-08-7
Product Overview
Anhydrous Potassium Carbonate, abbreviated as APC, has CAS No.584-08-7 and the molecular formula K₂CO₃. It falls under the inorganic-chemicals product category. Under ambient conditions, it presents as a white granular crystalline powder. This inorganic alkali salt has high water solubility and forms strongly alkaline aqueous solutions, while being practically insoluble in ethanol and other organic solvents. It is distinctly hygroscopic and can absorb both moisture and carbon dioxide from ambient air to produce potassium bicarbonate. Owing to its moderate melting point and alkaline buffering properties, it is widely utilised as a fundamental alkaline feedstock for glass production, inorganic-salt preparation and numerous chemical-processing workflows.
Full Product Description
Industrial-grade Anhydrous Potassium Carbonate from Shandong Xima Supply Chain is a trusted inorganic-salt feedstock for glass-material manufacturers, fine-chemical producers, and printing-dyeing facilities worldwide. Its core characteristic stems from its inorganic carbonate ionic structure. Unlike liquid alkaline reagents, this solid granular alkali allows convenient solid-form metering and transportation. It can function both as a fluxing agent for high-temperature glass-melting systems and as a pH regulator within aqueous chemical-reaction systems. Operators should keep its hygroscopic property in mind; prolonged exposure to humid air causes moisture uptake and carbon-dioxide absorption, which reduces its effective assay value and disturbs reaction stoichiometry in downstream production.
A key advantage of our anhydrous potassium carbonate is its strict limits on critical trace impurities, including chlorides, sulfates, and heavy-metal residues. Excess chloride or iron-based contaminants cause spot defects and reduce transparency during optical-glass melting, and also compromise the purity of derived potassium-salt products. Our industrial-grade material keeps these undesirable trace components within narrow technical specifications, validated by titration and instrumental analytical testing. Furthermore, its fast dissolution rate in water enables rapid preparation of alkaline working solutions, eliminating lengthy pre-dissolution steps for plant-scale production workflows.
Buyers gain tangible operational and commercial benefits by selecting our reliable anhydrous potassium carbonate supply. Stable impurity and assay specifications minimise reject rates for glass and derived inorganic-salt end-products, lowering raw-material waste and re-processing costs on client-side production lines. Our flexible bulk-inventory capacity accommodates both long-term framework contracts and urgent spot-order demands for glass-manufacturing plants and chemical-synthesis facilities. Customers can maintain uninterrupted production cycles without frequent supplier turnover. Every shipment includes complete official documentation to streamline import-customs clearance and internal quality-audit procedures for overseas industrial enterprises.
These performance claims are supported by our rigorous supply-chain-control protocols. Each incoming batch of anhydrous potassium carbonate undergoes representative sampling and in-house laboratory testing prior to dispatch. Test metrics include assay purity, visual appearance, loss on drying, chloride content, sulfate content and heavy-metal levels. All measured results are documented on each lot's Certificate of Analysis. Our anhydrous potassium carbonate has been exported for glass-production, inorganic-potassium-salt synthesis and industrial-pH-adjustment projects, earning repeat orders from industrial end-users. We only source material from audited upstream manufacturers holding valid chemical-production permits to guarantee consistent raw-material quality.
Global chemical purchasers frequently raise concerns regarding purity drift, moisture-driven degradation, excessive ionic impurities, incomplete hazard-related documentation and inconsistent delivery timelines for hygroscopic inorganic alkaline salts. As a licensed hazardous-chemical supply-chain trader, Shandong Xima conducts comprehensive pre-shipment inspections for every anhydrous-potassium-carbonate consignment. We maintain adequate safety stock for standard industrial-grade specifications to address urgent procurement requests. A full documentation package consisting of GHS-compliant MSDS, batch-specific COA, commercial invoice and packing list is prepared to meet customs-compliance requirements. Our technical-support team can provide practical best-practice guidance covering hermetic moisture-proof storage, dry-warehouse preservation and material-handling protocols to assist on-site plant operators in safely managing this hygroscopic inorganic-salt compound.
