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.

氢氧化钾暴露于空气中时，易吸收二氧化碳和水分，逐渐变成碳酸钾。易溶于水，溶解时放出大量溶解热，有极强的吸水性，在空气中能吸收水分而溶解，并吸收二氧化碳逐渐变成碳酸钾。溶于乙醇，微溶于醚。有极强的碱性和腐蚀性，其性质与烧碱相似。能引起灼伤。易于吸收空气中的水分和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.

产品运输是比较关键词的一环，尤其是氢氧化钾这种运输要求非常高的化学产品，不仅要注意运输情况还要考虑运输天气、包装规格等因素有关系。

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.

氢氧化钾铁路运输时，钢桶包装的可用敞车运输。固体可装入0.5毫米厚的钢桶中严封，每桶净重不超过100公斤；起运时包装要完整，装载应稳妥。

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.

塑料袋或二层牛皮纸袋外全开口或中开口钢桶；螺纹口玻璃瓶、铁盖压口玻璃瓶、塑料瓶或金属桶、外普通木箱；运输过程中要确保容器不泄漏、不倒塌、不坠落、不损坏，如果是实验室用，可用螺纹口玻璃瓶、塑料瓶或镀锡薄钢板桶（罐）外满底板花格箱、纤维板箱或胶合板箱；严禁与易燃物或可燃物、酸类、食用化学品等混装混运。

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.

运输时运输车辆应配备泄漏应急处理设备。严禁在雨雪天气的时候运输固体产品，避免因天气潮湿影响产品纯度。

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.

氢氧化钾的储运过程不能与强酸、易燃或可燃物在一起，稳定性方面还是比较活泼的，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.
