Application areas

Industrial application

Oil and gas

Drilling is a sensitive business. The minerals of K+S for the oil and gas industry are the perfect match for fluids and refinery processes.

Industrial application

Metalworking (as a hardening, soldering, and melting salt)

In metalworking, sodium chloride is used as a basic material.
Potassium chloride is important in metallurgical processes. For example, potassium chloride is used as hardening and soldering salts, as well as in foundry chemistry as melting salts. 

Industrial application

Electroplating

Potassium chloride is used as a conducting salt in weaker acidic solutions for electro-galvanizing. This helps to achieve higher voltage, thereby reducing the immersion time of the galvanized parts.

Industrial application

Titanium dioxide

Depending on the production process, potassium chloride or magnesium sulphate can be used as auxiliary materials in the production of titanium dioxide. The excellent quality of these auxiliary materials has positive effects on particle size and brightness.

Industrial application

Zeolites

In the synthetic production of zeolites (crystalline aluminosilicates) potassium chloride is used for adjusting pore size. Zeolites are used as molecular sieves and among other purposes are applied in the purification of natural gas

Industrial application

Further applications (potassium chloride)

Potassium chloride serves as a basic material for other diverse processes in industrial and commercial applications.
