About Potassium Sulphate

Potassium sulfate, also known as sulfate of potash (SOP), is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula K2SO4:

Appearance: A white, odorless, crystalline, granular, or powdery solid
Taste: Bitter, hard, and saline-likeSolubility: Dissolves in water but is insoluble in ethanol
Composition: Made of two potassium atoms, one sulfur atom, and four oxygen atoms
Uses: A fertilizer that provides potassium and sulfur to plants
Occurrence: Found naturally in volcanic lava and salt lakes, but rarely in pure form
Production: Historically made by reacting KCl with sulfuric acid

Potassium sulfate is often used for crops where additional chlorine is undesirable or high rates of K2SO4 are needed.Potassium is an essential nutrient for plants that helps with activating enzyme reactions, synthesizing proteins, forming starch and sugars, and regulating water flow in cells and leaves.
