Potassium acetate should be stored in a dry, ventilated, and clean warehouse, handled with care to prevent moisture and heat. During transportation, attention should also be paid to preventing rain and moisture, and to isolating and stacking toxic substances. Potassium acetate is a multifunctional compound with extensive applications in the fields of medicine, food, and industry. However, although potassium acetate has various advantages and uses, it still needs to be used in accordance with relevant regulations and guidance to ensure its safety and effectiveness.

Potassium acetate exhibits chemical properties as a weak acidic substance rather than a strong base. It is highly soluble in water, ethanol, and methanol, but insoluble in ether. The solution of potassium acetate is alkaline for litmus, but not for phenolphthalein. In addition, it also has flammability but low toxicity, with an LD50 of 3250mg/kg.
