Sodium Potassium Tartrate, also known as Rochelle salt, is a double salt derived from tartaric acid that is used in food, pharmaceutical, chemical, and metal industries. It is a chemical laxative that is used in the production of medications taken to maintain good gut health. It works as one of the common ingredients in the production of skincare and personal care products in the cosmetics industry. It is utilized to manufacture hair care products, including gels, shampoos, and masks, along with personal care products, such as soaps, moisturizers, and lotions. It is also utilized as a reducing agent to produce silver mirrors. It is also used in the production of Fehling’s solution in the chemical industry.
Industrial Sodium Potassium Tartrate procurement is influenced by its wide-range applications as a sodium-potassium salt of tartaric acid in the cosmetics, pharmaceutical, metal, and chemical industries. Its applications as a laxative in both cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries expand its demand in these sectors. The growing awareness of health benefits associated with natural food additives further fuels its demand. Also, its versatility in industrial applications, including as a buffering agent and stabilizer, improves its market potential. All of these applications of sodium potassium tartrate expand its demand and govern its procurement in the global market.
Raw Material for Sodium Potassium Tartrate Production
According to the Sodium Potassium Tartrate production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Sodium Potassium Tartrate include Potassium Bitartrate-Sodium Carbonate.
Production Process of Sodium Potassium Tartrate
The extensive Sodium Potassium Tartrate production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:
- From Potassium Bitartrate and Sodium Carbonate: The production process of Sodium Potassium Tartrate consists of a reaction between potassium bitartrate and sodium carbonate. In this process, sodium carbonate neutralizes potassium bitartrate forming Sodium Potassium Tartrate as the final product.
Sodium potassium tartrate has a molecular formula of KNaC4H4O6·4H2O with a molecular weight of 282.22 g/mol. It is an organic chemical salt with a colorless to white crystalline appearance and a saline taste with no odor. Its melting and boiling point is around 75 °C and 220 °C, respectively. It remains stable under normal conditions and is finely soluble in water. However, it is insoluble in certain chemical solvents such as ethanol. Its density is 1.5 g/cm3 at a standard temperature of 25 °. It slightly efflorescence in the presence of air and gives a faintly alkaline solution when dissolved in water.
