Potassium sulfate (US) or potassium sulfate (UK), also called sulfate of potash (SOP), arcanite, or archaically potash of sulfur is the inorganic compound with formula K2SO4, a white water-soluble solid. It is commonly used in fertilizers, providing both potassium and sulfur.

The dominant use of potassium sulfate is as a fertilizer. K2SO4 does not contain chloride, which can be harmful to some crops. Potassium sulfate is preferred for these crops, which include tobacco and some fruits and vegetables. Crops that are less sensitive may still require potassium sulfate for optimal growth if the soil accumulates chloride from irrigation water.

The crude salt is also used occasionally in the manufacture of glass. Potassium sulfate is also used as a flash reducer in artillery propellant charges. It reduces muzzle flash, flareback, and blast overpressure.

It is sometimes used as an alternative blast media similar to soda in soda blasting as it is harder and similarly water-soluble.

Potassium sulfate can also be used in pyrotechnics in combination with potassium nitrate to generate a purple flame. 

K2SO4 Uses (Potassium sulfate)

Potassium sulfate is dominantly used as a fertilizer for crops which include tobacco, some vegetables, and fruits.
Potassium sulfate is used as a salt substitute.
Potassium sulfate is used in artillery propellant charges as a flash reducer.

Potassium sulfate is used in soda blasting.
Potassium sulfate is used as a supplement for animal feeds.
Potassium sulfate is used in the production of lubricants and dyes.
Potassium sulfate is used in the manufacturing of ceramics and glass.

Potassium sulfate is used in the production of gypsum board.
Potassium sulfate is used to synthesize potassium aluminium sulfate.
Potassium sulfate is used to produce gypsum cement.
Potassium sulfate is used in explosives as a flash suppressant.

 Applications: 

1)Used for drugs (such as laxatives), fertilizer(about 50% potassium, potassium is a quick, can be used as basic fertilizer, seed fertilizer and top dressing). Also used for making alum, glass, and potassium carbonate. 
(2) Potassium Sulphate can be used as the raw material to produce multiple-element compound fertilizer, or as potassium fertilizer to fertilize field, especially applicable to chloride-resistant industrial crops such as tobacco, grape, cotton, beet.

Potassium sulphate is an important chlorine-free potassium fertilizer containing sulfur and potassium. K2O content is 50%-52%, and the S content is about 17%-18%. Agricultural potassium sulfate is mostly pale yellow. Potassium sulfate is a water-soluble potassium fertilizer because of its low moisture absorption, non-caking, good physical properties and convenient application. Potassium sulfate is especially suitable for cash crops that are resistant to chlorine and like potassium, such as tobacco, grapes, beet, tea, potatoes, flax and various fruit trees. It is also the main raw material for making chlorine-free nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium ternary compound fertilizer. Potassium sulfate is a chemical neutral and physiological acidic fertilizer, which is suitable for a variety of soils (excluding flooded soils) and crops.

Potassium sulphate is a chemical neutral and physical acid fertilizer, which is widely used in all kinds of soil and crops, especially for avoiding chloride. Potassium sulphate replaces potassium chloride and becomes a good potassium fertilizer. Potassium sulfate is a very good water-soluble potassium fertilizer because of its low hygroscopicity, low caking, good physical properties and convenient application. Potassium sulphate is especially suitable for cash crops that are not chlorpyrifos, such as tobacco, grape, beet, tea, potato, flax and various fruit trees.

The specific use methods are as follows:

1. It can be used as base fertilizer. When potassium sulfate is used as base fertilizer in the dry field, it is necessary to deeply cover the soil to reduce the crystal fixation of potassium, facilitate the absorption of crop roots and improve the utilization rate.

2. As topdressing. As the mobility of potassium in the soil is small, it should be applied to the soil layer with dense root system in order to promote the absorption.

3. It can be used as seed fertilizer and root top dressing. The amount of seed fertilizer used per mu is 1.5-2.5kg, which can also be made into 2% - 3% solution and used as external topdressing.
