Caustic potash solution / potassium hydroxide / KOH 3.0 mol/l
The 3.0 mol/l potassium hydroxide solution is a concentrated alkaline solution used in various areas of the laboratory and industry. In microbiology, it can be used to distinguish yeasts and filamentous fungi by soaking samples in the solution and then examining them microscopically. The 3.0 mol/l concentration is sufficient to ensure effective softening and separation of organisms.
In the chemical industry, the 3.0 mol/l potassium hydroxide solution is used in the manufacture of soaps, detergents and other products that require an alkaline reaction. In the textile industry, it can be used to remove grease and dirt, while in the food industry, it is used to regulate pH and as a preservative.
In the laboratory, the 3.0 mol/l caustic potash solution is used as an etchant to remove proteins and grease from glassware or to neutralize acids. In industry, it is used in anisotropic etching of silicon and as an electrolyte. In addition, potassium hydroxide is used as an etching additive in metallography to make certain structures in metals visible. The 3.0 mol/l concentration provides an effective etching reaction while controlling the reaction rate. Safety precautions must be observed when using this solution due to its etching power and alkalinity.
