Food Grade Potassium Carbonate

In food processing, potassium carbonate is mainly used to improve color and flavor. For example, when adding proper amount to noodles and wontons, it can give products a unique flavor, color and toughness. But it does not function as a leavening agent. Sodium carbonate acts as a leavening agent and increases the elasticity and malleability of foods, so it is often used with sodium carbonate and others. Both substances are remarkably basic, although potassium carbonate is slightly more basic than sodium carbonate because potassium is a little more reactive than sodium. The more basic the solution, the higher the pH. Potassium carbonate has a higher pH than sodium carbonate of the same concentration. This paper mainly discusses the physical and chemical properties, application standard, development status and prospect of potassium carbonate.
