Potassium hydroxide is a special chemical product, so in the process of transportation and storage, it is necessary to ensure the safety of the environment and avoid the deterioration of potassium hydroxide caused by environmental factors. Based on years of experience, Jinan Jinhao Chemical Co., Ltd. summarizes the problems that need attention in the transportation and storage process.

氫氧化鉀暴露于空氣中時，易吸收二氧化碳和水分，逐漸變成碳酸鉀。易溶于水，溶解時放出大量溶解熱，有極強的吸水性，在空氣中能吸收水分而溶解，并吸收二氧化碳逐漸變成碳酸鉀。溶于乙醇，微溶于醚。有極強的堿性和腐蝕性，其性質與燒堿相似。能引起灼傷。易于吸收空氣中的水分和CO2。

When potassium hydroxide is exposed to air, it is easy to absorb carbon dioxide and water, and gradually becomes potassium carbonate. It is easy to dissolve in water, release a lot of heat of dissolution when dissolving, and has strong water absorption. It can absorb water and dissolve in the air, and absorb carbon dioxide and gradually become potassium carbonate. Soluble in ethanol, slightly soluble in ether. It has strong alkalinity and corrosiveness, and its properties are similar to caustic soda. Can cause burns. Easy to absorb moisture and CO2 in the air.

產品運輸是比較關鍵詞的一環，尤其是氫氧化鉀這種運輸要求非常高的化學產品，不僅要注意運輸情況還要考慮運輸天氣、包裝規格等因素有關系。

Product transportation is one of the key words, especially potassium hydroxide, a chemical product with very high transportation requirements. It should not only pay attention to the transportation situation, but also consider the transportation weather, packaging specifications and other factors.

氫氧化鉀鐵路運輸時，鋼桶包裝的可用敞車運輸。固體可裝入0.5毫米厚的鋼桶中嚴封，每桶凈重不超過100公斤；起運時包裝要完整，裝載應穩妥。

When potassium hydroxide is transported by railway, the steel drum package can be transported by open car. The solid can be packed in a 0.5mm thick steel drum with a net weight of no more than 100kg. The packing shall be complete and the loading shall be safe.

塑料袋或二層牛皮紙袋外全開口或中開口鋼桶；螺紋口玻璃瓶、鐵蓋壓口玻璃瓶、塑料瓶或金屬桶、外普通木箱；運輸過程中要確保容器不泄漏、不倒塌、不墜落、不損壞，如果是實驗室用，可用螺紋口玻璃瓶、塑料瓶或鍍錫薄鋼板桶（罐）外滿底板花格箱、纖維板箱或膠合板箱；嚴禁與易燃物或可燃物、酸類、食用化學品等混裝混運。

Plastic bag or two-layer kraft paper bag with full or middle opening steel barrel; screw glass bottle, iron cover pressure glass bottle, plastic bottle or metal barrel, and external ordinary wooden box; during transportation, ensure that the container does not leak, collapse, fall or damage; if it is used in laboratory, it can be used with screw glass bottle, plastic bottle or tinplate barrel (can) with full bottom plate lattice box and fiber Board box or plywood box; it is strictly prohibited to mix with inflammables or combustibles, acids, edible chemicals, etc.

運輸時運輸車輛應配備泄漏應急處理設備。嚴禁在雨雪天氣的時候運輸固體產品，避免因天氣潮濕影響產品純度。

Transportation vehicles shall be equipped with leakage emergency treatment equipment during transportation. It is strictly prohibited to transport solid products in rainy and snowy weather to avoid the influence of humidity on product purity.

氫氧化鉀的儲運過程不能與強酸、易燃或可燃物在一起，穩定性方面還是比較活潑的，以后工作中要格外注意。

The storage and transportation process of potassium hydroxide can not be combined with strong acid, inflammable or combustible materials, and its stability is relatively active, so special attention should be paid in the future work.
