Description
KOH (Potassium Hydroxide) in a 10% concentration, commonly used in laboratory settings, is a clear, colorless liquid. It is highly alkaline, with a pH typically around 13, making it corrosive and capable of causing severe burns on contact with skin. Due to its caustic nature, it is crucial to handle it with care, using appropriate protective equipment such as gloves and goggles.
KOH in a 10% concentration is often used in various applications such as in the preparation of samples for microscopic examination, particularly in dermatology for the diagnosis of fungal infections like tinea versicolor. It is also used in the production of biodiesel, soap, and various other chemical processes.
The solution should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and incompatible materials. Proper ventilation is necessary when using it, as it can release irritating or toxic fumes. It is important to follow safety guidelines and handle it according to the manufacturer's instructions to avoid accidents and ensure safe use.
