Potassium chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula KCl, which looks like table salt, odorless and salty. It is often used as an additive for low sodium salt and mineral water. Potassium chloride is a commonly used electrolyte balance regulating drug in clinic. It has definite clinical curative effect and is widely used in various clinical departments.
Potassium chloride is a commonly used fertilizer in agriculture (commonly known as "potash fertilizer"), and it is commonly known as "red gali" in Taiwan. It can also be used in medicine, scientific applications [3] and food processing. Part of potassium chloride It is used to replace sodium chloride in table salt, which can reduce sodium intake and reduce the possibility of high blood pressure. However, because potassium chloride has a bitter and metallic taste, and sodium is still an essential macroelement for the human body, it cannot completely replace sodium chloride.
