Potassium Chloride (KCL)

Potassium chloride is a High Purity, dry crystalline inorganic/metal halide salt composed of potassium and chlorine. It occurs naturally as the mineral sylvite. It is an inorganic salt with chemical formulation as KCl and is used in water base muds and completion fluids to prevent water sensitive formation against clay damage.

Potassium Chloride is a white crystalline powder which readily dissolves in water. In solid form it has a weak, bitter, unsultry flavour. Potassium chloride is a naturally occurring mineral.
