Product Description
When precision matters in your lab, the right reagents make all the difference. This 1M potassium hydroxide solution from Avantor’s Titrinorm series is a standardized volumetric solution designed for accurate titration and analytical work. Whether you’re a student learning acid-base chemistry or a researcher ensuring reliable results, this ready-to-use solution eliminates the need for manual preparation, saving time and reducing errors.
The AVS Titrinorm label guarantees consistency, with each batch rigorously tested to meet strict quality standards. The 1N concentration (equivalent to 1M) is ideal for neutralizing acids, determining unknown concentrations, or calibrating lab equipment. Unlike solid KOH, which requires careful dissolution and standardization, this pre-mixed solution offers convenience without compromising accuracy.
For educators, this solution simplifies classroom demonstrations, allowing students to focus on technique rather than preparation. Researchers will appreciate its traceability and stability, ensuring reproducible data across experiments. The 1L pack size is perfect for frequent use, reducing the need for constant restocking.

FAQs
What is the shelf life of this potassium hydroxide solution?
When stored properly in its original container, the solution remains stable for up to 2 years. Always check the expiration date on the label.
Can this solution be used for food or pharmaceutical testing?
While it meets analytical grade standards, it is not certified for food or pharmaceutical use. For such applications, consider reagents with appropriate certifications.
How should I dispose of unused potassium hydroxide solution?
Neutralize with a weak acid like acetic acid before disposal, following local hazardous waste regulations. Never pour down the drain.
Is this solution compatible with automatic titrators?
Yes, it is designed for use with both manual and automated titration systems, provided the instrument is calibrated correctly.
What is the difference between 1M and 1N potassium hydroxide?
For KOH, 1M (molar) equals 1N (normal) because it donates one hydroxide ion per molecule. The terms are interchangeable in this context.
