Potassium permanganate, a potent chemical compound with a distinctive purple hue, holds significant importance across various industries and applications. In water treatment, it serves as a powerful oxidizing agent, effectively removing impurities and pathogens from drinking water supplies. Additionally, it finds utility in the medical field as an antiseptic agent, used to treat various skin conditions and wounds due to its disinfectant properties. Furthermore, potassium permanganate is employed in laboratory settings for analytical purposes, particularly in titrations to determine the concentration of reducing agents. Its oxidizing capabilities also make it valuable in organic synthesis, aiding in the preparation of various chemical compounds. However, due to its strong oxidizing nature, proper handling and storage procedures are essential to prevent accidents and ensure safety. Despite its challenges, potassium permanganate remains a versatile and indispensable compound with diverse applications in modern industry and science.

For many learners high school is not enough to prepare them for what they are to face at first year university. They find themselves completely overwhelmed and intimidated by what is expected of them to be able to do in a laboratory.

Unfortunately many learners who want to pursue science subjects go through this dilemma, few as they are because fact is SA is not producing enough learners who will become engineers, doctors, science researchers, let alone science innovators.

To address this, we developed a chemistry kits with 52 experiments for use by learners at home. This gives them an opportunity to gain hand-on exposure and engagement, confidence and understanding they need to study sciences further.

The kit comes with a manual explaining how science is experienced in daily life and therefore brings awareness of the application and usefulness of science, helping the learner relate to what they learn at school.

Some schools do have kits where only the teacher demonstrates the experiments and this is great, but you don’t master driving by watching the driving instructor, you must get in the driver’s seat yourself.
