3. Potassium tartrate CAS 921-53-9 can be used as a buffer and in the formulation of certain drugs in the pharmaceutical industry.
4. In the laboratory, potassium tartrate is used as a reagent for various chemical reactions and analyses, including the preparation of certain metal tartrates.
5. Potassium tartrate CAS 921-53-9can be used in analytical chemistry to determine certain metal ions and prepare standard solutions.
6. Potassium tartrate can also be used in agriculture as a potassium source for plants.
Packed in 25 kg per drum or based on customers' requirements.
To store potassium tartrate CAS 921-53-9 safely and effectively.
1. Use airtight containers made of materials that are compatible with organic compounds, such as glass or high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Make sure the container is designed for chemical storage.
2. Store potassium tartrate CAS 921-53-9 in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Potassium tartrate is best to use a dedicated chemical storage cabinet.
3. Store Potassium tartrate product at controlled room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures as this will affect the stability of the product.
4. When not in use, ensure that the container remains tightly closed to prevent moisture absorption and contamination. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and goggles when handling this material.
5. Clearly label containers with contents, hazard warnings, and storage dates.
6. Regularly inspect storage areas and containers for signs of leaks, damage or degradation.
7. Have appropriate spill control materials and safety equipment (e.g., fire extinguishers and eyewash stations) available in storage areas.
8. Please dispose of potassium tartrate CAS 921-53-9 and any waste generated during Potassium tartrate use in accordance with local regulations.
