Overview of Potassium Phosphate

Potassium Phosphate is an important inorganic potassium salt of phosphoric acid widely used in fertilisers, water treatment, food processing, pharmaceuticals, and industrial chemical manufacturing. Depending on the potassium-to-phosphate ratio, it is commonly available as monopotassium phosphate (KH₂PO₄), dipotassium phosphate (K₂HPO₄), or tripotassium phosphate (K₃PO₄), each serving specific industrial purposes.

From a chemical standpoint, Potassium Phosphate compounds consist of potassium ions bonded with phosphate groups, providing excellent buffering capacity and nutrient value. It typically appears as a white crystalline powder or granules, is odourless, and readily soluble in water. Due to its stability and versatility, Potassium Phosphate is widely used across multiple industrial sectors.
