Potassium carbonate is the inorganic compound with the formula K2CO3. It is a white salt, which is soluble in water. It is deliquescent, often appearing as a damp or wet solid. Potassium carbonate is mainly used in the production of soap and glass.

Potassium carbonate was leached from ashes in Pompeii and mixed with slaked lime for soapmaking. The increase in the use of this alkali paralleled the growth of western civilization. So much wood was consumed in the production of potassium carbonate that the forests of Europe were threatened. At the time of the French Revolution, LeBlanc s invention allowed sodium carbonate to be substituted on a general basis.
