At Ideal Chemicals, we market premium quality product - Potassium Carbonate (PCN), which is manufactured by our principal using the technology of Bertrams, Switzerland.

Potassium Carbonate is a white solid salt that forms a strong alkaline solution. It is highly soluble in water but insoluble in alcohols. Commercially, potassium carbonate is prepared by the electrolysis of potassium chloride. It is deliquescent substance often appearing as a damp or wet solid. It is widely used in the production of soap and glass.
Potassium Carbonate is widely used in :
Production of soap, glass and china
Manufacturing TV picture tubes
Fertilizer & Pesticides production
Dyes and Potassium based chemicals
GLS lamps and ophthalmic glass
Rubber Chemicals

Potassium Carbonate is used as a mild drying agent in laboratory processes and as an electrolyte in cold fusion experiments.
