IPotassium chloride isetshenziswa kakhulu embonini engaphili futhi iyinto eluhlaza eyisisekelo yokukhiqiza zonke izinhlobo zikasawoti we-potassium noma izisekelo, njenge-potassium hydroxide, i-potassium sulfate, i-potassium nitrate, i-potassium chlorate, i-potassium alum nokunye. Imboni yezemithi isetshenziswa njenge-diuretic kanye nomuthi wokuvikela nokwelashwa kokushoda kwe-potassium. Imboni yodayi isetshenziselwa ukukhiqiza usawoti we-G, udayi osebenzayo njalonjalo. Ezolimo uhlobo lomanyolo we-potash. Umphumela wawo womanyolo uyashesha, futhi ungasetshenziswa ngqo emasimini, okungakhuphula umswakama engxenyeni engezansi yenhlabathi futhi kube nomphumela wokumelana nesomiso, kepha ayifanele ukusetshenziswa enhlabathini enosawoti-alkali nakugwayi , ubhatata, isithombo sebhitrudi nezinye izilimo. I-Potassium chloride ifana ne-sodium chloride ekunambitheni (okumunyu) futhi isetshenziswa futhi njengesengezo sosawoti ophansi we-sodium noma amanzi amaminerali. Ngaphezu kwalokho, ibuye isetshenziswe ekwakhiweni kwesifonyo noma ilangabi lesibhamu elicindezelayo, i-ejenti yokwelashwa ngokushisa kwensimbi, nezithombe. Ingasetshenziswa futhi kwezokwelapha, ukusetshenziswa kwezesayensi, ukucutshungulwa kokudla, usawoti kungabuye kufakwe esikhundleni se-potassium chloride sodium chloride, ukuze kuncishiswe amathuba okuba nomfutho wegazi ophezulu. I-Electroplating grade potassium chloride iqukethe ilamula eliyinkimbinkimbi, elenza ukugqokiswa kube kuhle futhi kucwebezele, okungathuthukisa ukufana nokujula kwekhono lokugeza okugoqiwe, kuthuthukise ikhwalithi ephezulu yezingxenye zokugcwala, kuthuthukise ukuqhutshwa kwendawo yokugezela, kukhuthaze futhi kusheshise izinga lemvula le-zinc ion; okuqukethwe i-chloride ion yalo mkhiqizo ngokuvamile kuphakeme kunokwe-potassium chloride ejwayelekile, engathuthukisa ukusabalalisa nokukala kokuqonda kwebha yokugezela. Lapho izinga lokushisa liphezulu kakhulu noma liphansi kakhulu, akukho ukugeza kwezulu okwenziwe nge-crystallization ngokuzinza okuhle, umjikelezo wenkonzo ende nokukhiqizwa okuqhubekayo, futhi ngasikhathi sinye, ukunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwamandla nokunciphisa umjikelezo wokukhiqiza kungathuthukisa izinzuzo eziphelele zezomnotho zebhizinisi
