Potassium Permanganate
Product Overview:
CAS #: 7722-64-7
Potassium permanganate is a powerful oxidizer used extensively across municipal, industrial, and leather and textile applications. It is commonly employed in municipal and industrial water treatment for iron and manganese removal, taste and odor control, and disinfection of drinking water supplies. Additionally, it serves as an oxidizing agent for hydrogen sulfide removal and general water quality improvement in well water treatment systems. Potassium permanganate is also utilized in leather and textile processing for bleaching, acid-wash denim finishing, and controlled color fading effects. Furthermore, it finds applications in general industrial water treatment programs requiring a strong, versatile oxidizer.
