What Is Potassium Bicarbonate?

Potassium bicarbonate (potassium hydrogen carbonate), CAS 298-14-6, EC 206-059-0, is a mild alkali. It is used as a sodium-free leavening agent, pH regulator and potassium source in foods and beverages, and in effervescent products and wine making.

The specification sets assay 99.0–101.5% on a dry basis and loss on drying below 0.25%, with limits on lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury.

It is not regulated as dangerous goods. Food use requires a grade and documents that meet the rules of the destination market.

As a potassium bicarbonate supplier and exporter in China, ZXCHEM packs the white crystals in 25 kg or 50 kg PP woven bags with food-grade PE liners.
