Potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution is highly valued in the field of analytical chemistry, particularly as a reagent in High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), a technique used for separating, identifying, and quantifying each component in a mixture. The utility of Potassium hydroxide solution in HPLC primarily lies in its role as a mobile phase modifier for the separation of acidic compounds. By adjusting the pH of the mobile phase, Potassium hydroxide can enhance the ionization of acidic analytes, thereby improving their interaction with the stationary phase and enabling more effective separations.
