Application

Potassium is widely used in synthetic chemistry as a strong reducing agent and in the preparation of organopotassium compounds. It serves as a critical component in alkali-metal batteries and electrochemical research due to its high conductivity and reactivity. In metallurgy, potassium is employed as a desiccant and reducing agent for metal oxides. Biological studies utilize potassium isotopes (³⁹K, ⁴⁰K, ⁴¹K) for tracer experiments and metabolic research.
