Potassium Hydrogen Phthalate

Potassium Hydrogen Phthalate

Potassium hydrogen phthalate is a primary standard acidimetric compound used in analytical chemistry, pH calibration, and volumetric titrations. Its stability as a solid, air-stable salt with a precise pKa value (5.4) makes it ideal for standardizing bases and calibrating pH meters.

With high purity (99.95% ACS primary standard), high equivalent weight, and excellent solubility, it supports accurate laboratory measurements with minimal errors. Non-hygroscopic and non-decomposing nature ensures 2-year shelf stability suitable for precise analytical work.

Sr. No. Description Specification
1 Purity 99.95% minimum
2 Chemical Formula C₈H₅KO₄
3 Form

White crystalline powder

4 Country of origin India
5 Quantities Available in analytical quantities, typically 500 g to 25 kg
  • White crystalline solid with molecular weight 204.22 g/mol; melting point 295–300°C.

  • Soluble in water (80 g/L at 20°C); pKa 5.4, providing pH buffering capability for a pH 4.0–6.0 range.

  • Solid and air-stable; non-hygroscopic nature allows accurate weighing without correction factors.

  • Chemically inert; does not decompose in storage or oxidize when exposed to air.

  • Primary standard for acidimetric titrations to standardize base solutions (KOH, NaOH) with high precision.

  • pH buffer and calibration standard for pH meter calibration at pH 4.00 reference point.

  • Laboratory reagent in volumetric analysis and quality control for chemical standardization.

  • Component in analytical standards for various organic carbon measurements and analytical chemistry protocols.

  • ACS primary standard grade (99.95%) with NIST traceability; batch-specific certificates of analysis provided.

  • Non-toxic; minimal hazards; standard laboratory PPE sufficient for handling.

  • Store in cool, dry place in sealed containers; indefinite shelf life under proper conditions.

  • Stable and reliable; no special storage precautions required beyond normal chemical storage practices.
