Frequently Asked Questions
It is primarily used as an initiator for polymerization (acrylics, vinyl chloride), a bleaching agent in cosmetics and textiles, and for etching metal surfaces in semiconductor manufacturing.
Being non-hygroscopic means it does not easily absorb moisture from the air, which ensures the powder remains free-flowing and stable during long-term storage and transport.
It is used for the activation of copper and aluminium surfaces and the precision etching of printed circuit boards, ensuring high conductivity and clean traces.
We provide 25Kg plastic woven bags or 25Kg PE bags, both designed to protect the product from external contaminants and ensure safe handling.
The compound typically begins to decompose at approximately 100°C, which is a critical parameter for its use as a thermal initiator in polymerization.
Yes, Potassium Persulphate is an excellent bleach activator, particularly effective for cold bleaching processes where heat-sensitive fabrics are treated.
