Description
Potassium iodide
- Radiation Protection: Potassium iodide is known for its ability to protect the thyroid gland from radioactive iodine, particularly in the event of a nuclear accident or emergency. It saturates the thyroid with non-radioactive iodine, preventing uptake of radioactive iodine-131.
- Nutritional Supplement: Iodine is essential for thyroid function and overall health. Potassium iodide supplements can be used to prevent iodine deficiency, which can lead to thyroid disorders like goiter and hypothyroidism.
- Chemical Reagent: Potassium iodide is also used in various chemical reactions and laboratory procedures, including as a source of iodide ions in solutions.
- Photography: It has historical use in photography, particularly in the production of daguerreotypes.
- Medical Applications: In medicine, it can be used in certain treatments, such as in the management of some types of hyperthyroidism.

Agar Agar Powder
Agar agar powder refers to the dehydrated and powdered form of agar agar, a natural gelling agent derived from seaweed. It is made by drying and grinding the agar agar gel, resulting in a fine powder with excellent gelling properties. Agar agar powder is commonly used in cooking, baking, and food preparation as a vegetarian and vegan substitute for gelatin. It is prized for its ability to create firm and stable gels at relatively low concentrations and temperatures. Agar agar powder is versatile and can be used in a variety of recipes, including desserts, confectioneries, jams, jellies, and savory dishes.
Aluminum Ammonium Sulphate
Aluminum ammonium sulfate, also known as ammonium alum or just alum, is a chemical compound with the formula (NH4)Al(SO4)2·12H2O. It's a white crystalline solid commonly used in water purification, leather tanning, and as a mordant in dyeing textiles.
In water purification, alum acts as a coagulant to remove impurities by causing suspended particles to clump together, making it easier for filtration to remove them. In leather tanning, it helps to stabilize the leather by tightening the collagen fibers. And in dyeing textiles, alum helps the dye adhere to the fabric.
However, it's important to note that excessive exposure to aluminum compounds like alum can be harmful, so it's typically used with caution and proper safety measures.
Aluminum Nitrate 500gm
Aluminum nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula Al(NO3)3. It's a salt composed of aluminum and nitrate ions. It's commonly encountered as a hydrate with varying numbers of water molecules associated with each aluminum nitrate formula unit. It's soluble in water and is often used in various industrial processes, including as a mordant in dyeing fabrics and in the production of aluminum oxide. Additionally, it's used in some chemical reactions and as a component in some types of rocket propellants.
Ammonia Solution 2.5litres
An ammonia solution is a solution of ammonia (NH3) gas dissolved in water. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a pungent odor and a basic pH. The concentration of ammonia in the solution can vary, and is typically expressed in terms of percent by weight or by volume.
Ammonia solutions are commonly used in a variety of applications, including cleaning agents, fertilizers, and as a precursor to other chemicals. They are also used in industrial processes such as refrigeration, gas purification, and water treatment. Ammonia solutions can be dangerous if not handled properly, as they are highly corrosive and can release toxic fumes if mixed with certain chemicals
