Potassium permanganate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula KMnO4 and composed of K+ and MnO−4. It is a purplish-black crystalline salt, that dissolves in water to give intensely pink or purple solutions.
Potassium permanganate is widely used in the chemical industry and laboratories as a strong oxidizing agent, and also as a medication for dermatitis, for cleaning wounds, and for general disinfection.
Potassium permanganate is used extensively in the water treatment industry. It is used as a regeneration chemical to remove iron and hydrogen sulfide (rotten egg smell) from well water via a “Manganese Greensand” Filter. “Pot-Perm” is also obtainable at pool supply stores and is used additionally to treat wastewater. Historically it was used to disinfect drinking water and can turn the water pink. It currently finds application in the control of nuisance organisms such as zebra mussels in fresh water collection and treatment systems.
Potassium permanganate is added to “plastic sphere dispensers” to create backfires, burnouts, and controlled burns. Polymer spheres resembling ping-pong balls containing small amounts of permanganate are injected with ethylene glycol and projected towards the area where ignition is desired, where they spontaneously ignite seconds later. Both handheld and helicopter- or boat-mounted plastic sphere dispensers are used.
Potassium permanganate is one of the principal chemicals used in the film and television industries to “age” props and set dressings. Its ready conversion to brown MnO2 creates “hundred-year-old” or “ancient” looks on Hessian cloth (burlap), ropes, timber, and glass.
Potassium permanganate uses are mostly centered around its oxidizing property. It is also used widely because there is no generation of toxic byproducts.
KMnO4 is used extensively as an antiseptic to treat different kinds of fungal infections, ulcers, wounds, and other skin conditions.
It is used in water treatment mainly to remove minerals such as iron and hydrogen sulfide and control organisms such as zebra mussels.
This chemical compound is also used to remove rust that may be found in water pipes and equipment.
Another major use of potassium permanganate is in the synthesis of organic compounds.
It is used in the preservation of fruits.
It is found in survival kits. It can be used to start a fire easily.
It is also used in rocket propellants.
KMnO4 is used in treating fish diseases and parasites.
Potassium Permanganate which is also commonly referred to as KMnO4 is a chemical compound that is used in many industries for its oxidizing functionality. This compound is also sold commercially mostly for medicinal purposes. It is available as crystals, powder, and tablets. While this is one of the most discussed topics in Chemistry we will understand everything about the compound in detail below.
