We are offering mono potassium phosphate (also potassium dihydrogen phosphate, kdp, or monobasic potassium phosphate, mkp) -- kh2po4 is a soluble salt which is used as a fertilizer, a food additive and a fungicide. It is a source of phosphorus and potassium, and is a buffering agent. When used in fertilizer mixtures with urea and ammonium phosphates, it minimizes escape of ammonia by keeping the ph at a relatively low level.
fertilizer grade mkp contains 52% p2o5 and 34% k2o, and is labeled 0-52-34. It is often used as a nutrient source in the greenhouse trade and in hydroponics. It is one of the components of gatorade and is used as an additive in cigarettes. At 400°c it decomposes, by loss of water, to potassium metaphosphate (kpo3).
