Di Potassium Hydrogen Phosphate 98% ACS,FG

What is Di Potassium Hydrogen Phosphate? It is the inorganic compound with the formula K₂HPO₄.(H₂O)_x (x = 0, 3, 6). Together with monopotassium phosphate (KH₂PO₄.(H₂O)_x), it is often used as a fertiliser, food additive, and buffering agent. It is a white or colourless solid that is soluble in water. It is produced commercially by partial neutralisation of phosphoric acid with two equivalents of potassium chloride.

Consistent Quality: We provide only high-quality Di Potassium Hydrogen Phosphate, ensuring reliable and consistent performance for all applications.
