Potassium Silicate

Potassium silicate is a colorless or barely yellow translucent to transparent glassy substance. It has hygroscopicity. There is a robust alkaline reaction. Dissolve in acid to precipitate silica. Slowly soluble in bloodless water or nearly insoluble in water (depending on its composition), insoluble in ethanol. Potassium silicate is regularly used in the manufacturing of welding electrodes, welding electrodes, lowering dyes, and furnace retardants. Also used as a fluorescent display coating layer and cleaning soap filler. When in a steady state, it is a obvious and viscous liquid, displaying a blue-green color. It is without problems soluble in water and acid, and precipitates colloidal silicic acid. The greater the potassium content, the greater soluble it is. Insoluble in alcohol.
