Overview
Potassium chloride is a potassium salt that originates from the strong acid known as hydrochloric acid.
Salts are commonly used in water-in-oil emulsions to stabilize the emulsion and to prevent the two opposing phases from separating from one another. They perform this function by controlling the viscosity of the emulsion – specifically, by thickening it.
Increasing the viscosity means there is less yield in the product. The ingredients move around less easily, and thus, the internal phase is less likely to coalesce and separate.
