Potassium carbonate / potash

Potassium carbonate application

In the construction industry

Potassium carbonate is added to construction mixtures and concrete as an antifreeze additive to reduce the freezing point.
It is noteworthy that potassium carbonate allows construction work to be carried out at temperatures down to -25°C, while simultaneously contributing to the strength of the mortar.
Moreover, potash, as a strong steel corrosion inhibitor, can be used in the manufacture of reinforced concrete.
It should be noted that potassium carbonate is used for fire protection treatment of wooden buildings and structures.
