Swapnroop Pharma manufactures and supplies Potassium Hydroxide (KOH), a strong inorganic alkali used as a pharmaceutical and chemical raw material, pH-adjusting agent, alkalizing agent and processing aid in appropriate applications.
Potassium Hydroxide is an inorganic base that is highly soluble in water and produces strongly alkaline solutions. In pharmaceutical manufacturing and formulation development, it can be used where controlled alkalinity, pH adjustment or neutralization is required.
Unlike conventional solid pharmaceutical excipients such as cellulose derivatives or starches, Potassium Hydroxide is primarily used as a processing and pH-adjustment material. Its suitability as an excipient depends on the specific formulation, grade and applicable regulatory requirements.
Potassium Hydroxide is commonly supplied in the form of white pellets, flakes or solid material and is highly hygroscopic. It readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
It is widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, laboratory and industrial processes requiring a strong alkaline material.
Potassium Hydroxide can be used for:
Potassium Hydroxide provides:
Swapnroop Pharma supplies Potassium Hydroxide for pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical processing and formulation applications. Product grade and concentration can be selected according to the intended use and customer specification.
For pharmaceutical applications, the exact grade should be evaluated against the applicable pharmacopoeial and regulatory requirements.
Potassium Hydroxide is highly corrosive and hygroscopic. It should be stored in tightly closed, compatible containers in a cool, dry and well-ventilated area. Protect the product from moisture, water, carbon dioxide and incompatible materials.
Appropriate handling procedures, PPE and the applicable SDS should always be followed.
