Mono Potassium Phosphate (MKP) Areas of Use:
It is used as a neutralizing agent and chelating agent in some applications.
It is a substance used as a source of Potassium and Phosphorus in the agricultural sector. Its solubility in water and being in dry form are one of the reasons for its use in this area.
It provides the mineral balance of infants in parenteral nutrition by increasing the solubility of Calcium and Phosphorus in solutions where amino acids and Dextrose are used together.
It is used as a buffering agent in the pharmaceutical sector.
Potassium plays the role of the main cation among the elements found in the cell. It ensures the transportation of dextrose in the cell membrane.
Phosphorus is an important boron element for the formation of energy-carrying compounds in plants. It occurs as an important component of ATP and ADP. MKP can be used in the plant's Phosphorus deficiency.
It is used together with Sodium Alginate and Sodium Bicarbonate for the treatment of heartburn disorders such as Reflux Esophagitis.
It is used in the food sector in leavening agent and fermentation processes.
Arugula is a vegetable rich in potassium. Mono Potassium Phosphate is used to produce Arugula under the most suitable conditions and to increase the yield of Arugula.
