POTASSIUM NITRATE

S5101286/500G

Question

When trying to dissolve the crystals, the solution remains cloudy. Why is this?

 

Answer

Our supplier has stated the following:
 We have made up a 1% soln in water and find it is cloudy which we think is due to the insoluble anti-caking agent( E504(ii) Magnesium bicarbonate @1.54%), which now seems to be added to all commercial material. However, on standing overnight, the solution did clear (presumably the anti-caking agent will have settled to the bottom).
