Application


  • Impact of Modifications from Potassium Hydroxide on Porous Semi-IPN Hydrogel Properties and Its Application in Cultivation: This study discusses how potassium hydroxide modifications enhance the properties of semi-interpenetrating polymer network (semi-IPN) hydrogels, which are used in agricultural applications to improve soil water retention and plant growth (Tuan HNA et al., 2024).

  • Chitin nanofibrils assisted 3D printing all-chitin hydrogels for wound dressing: Potassium hydroxide plays a critical role in processing chitin nanofibrils for 3D printing hydrogels, which are then applied in medical fields as advanced wound dressing materials (Zheng Y et al., 2024).

  • Analytical study of KOH wet etch surface passivation for III-nitride micropillars: This research uses potassium hydroxide in wet etching processes to study its effects on surface passivation, crucial for enhancing the performance of III-nitride semiconductor micropillars in electronic applications (Seitz M et al., 2024).

  • Black goes green: single-step solvent exchange for sol-gel synthesis of carbon spherogels as high-performance supercapacitor electrodes: Potassium hydroxide is utilized to synthesize carbon spherogels via a green sol-gel process, demonstrating their efficacy as supercapacitor electrodes in energy storage technologies (Salihovic M et al., 2024).

  • Robust anion exchange membranes based on ionic liquid grafted chitosan/polyvinyl alcohol/quaternary ammonium functionalized silica for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells: This paper explores the application of potassium hydroxide in the development of durable anion exchange membranes for use in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells, highlighting its role in achieving high ionic conductivity (Jang HS et al., 2024).
