permanganates
Violet potassium salts
Permanganates are chemical salts containing the permanganate ion, characterized by their deep purple color.
Potassium permanganate is the most common, used as a disinfectant, oxidizing agent, and water treatment chemical.
The distinctive purple stain permanganates leave on skin and surfaces makes contamination immediately visible.
