Potassium hypophosphite Specification

The Potassium phosphinate is an inorganic compound with the formula KH2PO2. The systematic name of this chemical is Phosphinic acid, potassium salt. With the CAS registry number 7782-87-8 and EINECS 231-967-9, it is also named as Potassium hypophosphite, monobasic. It is white hexagonal crystals which is easily soluble in hot water, soluble in cold water, slightly soluble in ethanol and ammonia, and insoluble in ether. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of POx and K2O. In addition, this chemical is used in pharmaceutical.
