Potassium Hydroxide Pellets (KOH) are solid, highly caustic compounds often used in various industrial and laboratory applications. These white, odorless pellets are a strong base and are known for their high reactivity with water, forming potassium hydroxide solution and heat in the process. They are commonly used in the production of fertilizers, soaps, and biodiesel, as well as in chemical synthesis and pH regulation. Handle with care, as KOH can cause severe burns and irritation.

Anhydrous Aluminum Chloride
Anhydrous aluminum chloride, often represented as AlCl3, is a chemical compound composed of aluminum and chlorine. "Anhydrous" means it lacks water molecules in its structure. It's a white or pale yellow solid that is highly hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air. This property makes handling it a bit tricky since it can form a solution with water vapor in the air, turning into a fuming liquid.
Sodium Thiosulphate 25kg
Sodium thiosulfate (Na2S2O3) is an inorganic compound that is commonly used as a photographic fixer, as well as in medical and industrial applications. It is a white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and has a mild odor. In photography, sodium thiosulfate is used to remove unexposed silver halide from photographic prints and negatives, making the image permanent. In medicine, it is used as an antidote for cyanide poisoning, and in industrial applications, it is used as a reducing agent, a dechlorinating agent, and in water treatment processes.
