Potassium silicate is an inorganic compound of potassium, silicon, and oxygen, commonly available as a colorless liquid or white solid. It is used in various industrial applications, including cleaning products, adhesives, and concrete, and is also used in agriculture as a source of soluble potassium and silicon, which can strengthen plants against pests and diseases. The compound is alkaline and dissolves in water to form a solution.

Conclusion | Qualified | |
1.Potassium Silicate used as a binder in welding electrodes, refractory materials, and ceramic industries.
2.As a corrosion inhibitor in water treatment and protective coatings.
3.Potassium Silicate serves as an adhesive in paper, cardboard, and packaging industries.
4.Potassium Silicate used in agriculture as a foliar fertilizer and soil stabilizer.
5.Potassium Silicate applied in detergents and cleaning products for its emulsifying and deflocculating properties.
6.Potassium Silicate acts as a sealant and surface hardener in concrete and construction materials.
7.Potassium Silicate used in fireproofing coatings and materials due to its high thermal stability.
Potassium silicate is generally considered safe when handled properly. It is non-flammable and non-explosive. However, it is alkaline and may cause skin and eye irritation. Direct contact should be avoided. Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and goggles during handling. Ensure adequate ventilation in working areas.
Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place.
Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent evaporation and carbonation.
Avoid contact with acids and strong oxidizing agents.
Protect from freezing and extreme temperatures.
Potassium silicate is typically supplied in:
25 kg or 250 kg plastic drums
1000 kg IBC totes
Bulk tanker trucks for large quantities
Classified as non-hazardous for transport under normal conditions.
