Potassium Superoxide (KO2)   CAS Number: 12030-88-5 Molecular Formula: KO2 Molecular Weight: 71.10 Synonym: Potassium dioxide, potassium peroxide   Potassium Superoxide powder Molecular formular:KO2 Physical property: yellow powder, volume density is 0.45_0.60g/cm3, melting point is 546. It begin to decompose at 145 and completely decompose at 660 producing potassium oxide (K2O) and oxygen. It can react with water or carbon dioxide containing water vapor to release oxygen. It will burn if meet with combustible organic matter. Item Index % Effective oxygen content % 31.0 Volume density g/cm3 0.45-0.60 Uses: given the property of reaction with carbon dioxide containing water vapor producing oxygen, it can be used to manufacture all kinds of chemical oxygen generation agents for isolated type protective mask and air regeneration in airtight system. Package: In round iron drum lined with double layers polyethylene plastic bag. Caution: As potent oxidant and moister absorber, it must be kept in waterproof and damp proof place and from combustible organic matter.
