INDOKEM Potassium Permanganate, Packaging Type : Plastic Drums

potassium permanganate

potassium permanganate is a very strong oxidizing agent.

it's a deep red-violet metallic shiny crystalline solid. It can be dissolved in water to form a dark violet solution which is well suitable to bleach denim.

potassium permanganate can be used for local bleaching by spraying application or for complete treatments in drum washing machines. The potassium permanganate solution must be mixed very well with the washing liquor, because of dissolved permanganate can cause different shades in only one bath.
