一.Product Property:

White crystals, extremely salty in taste, odorless and non-toxic. They are soluble in water and glycerol, slightly soluble in alcohols, and insoluble in ethers, acetone and hydrochloric acid . They have hygroscopic properties and are prone to caking; the solubility in water increases rapidly with the rise in temperature, and they often undergo double decomposition reactions with sodium salts to form new potassium salts.
