- Potassium metabisulfite, K2S2O5, also
known as potassium pyrosulfite, is a white crystalline powder with a
pungent sulfur odour.
- The main use for the chemical is as an
antioxidant or chemical sterilant. It is a disulfite and is
chemically very similar to sodium metabisulfite, with which it is
sometimes used interchangeably.
- Potassium metabisulfite is generally
preferred out of the two as it does not contribute sodium to the
diet.
- Potassium metabisulfite has a monoclinic
crystal structure which decomposes at 190 °C, yielding potassium
oxide and sulfur dioxide.
- It is used as a food additive, also known
as E224. It is restricted in use and may cause severe allergic
reactions in sensitive persons. Potassium is an inhibitor of the
polyphenol oxidase enzyme.
- The winemaking industry uses potassium
metabisulfite as an additive during the bottling process. When they
add potassium metabisulfite to the wine, a sulfur dioxide gas forms,
which destroys microorganisms in the wine and prevents molds and
bacteria from growing inside the wine bottle.
- Additionally, potassium metabisulphite is
a strong antioxidant that protects the color and flavors of the
wine. Without the use of potassium metabisulfite, wines would
develop a stronger taste over time as the wine ages in the bottle.
- One quarter teaspoon of potassium
metabisulphite can treat approximately five gallons of wine.
- Potassium metabisulfite is used in the
textile industry for dyeing and cotton printing.
- Heating potassium sulfate with
concentrated sulfuric acid forms the acid salt potassium
hydrosulfate (bisulfate): K2SO4 + H2SO4 = 2KHS04. At temperatures
above its melting point (210°C), potassium hydrosulfate is converted
to potassium pyrosulfate (2KHS04 = K2S207 + H20)
