Product Description

Product Application of Potassium iodate CAS#7758-05-6

Potassium iodate is an iodine-containing salt with the chemical formula KIO₃. Compared with potassium iodide, it features superior chemical stability, especially in hot and humid environments. Potassium iodide is hygroscopic and prone to hydrolysis under such conditions, whereas potassium iodate enjoys a longer shelf life. Additionally, it can effectively block the thyroid gland from absorbing radioactive iodine. It occurs as colorless monoclinic crystals or odorless white crystalline powder. It is soluble in water, dilute acids, ethylenediamine, ethanolamine and aqueous potassium iodide solutions; slightly soluble in liquid sulfur dioxide; and insoluble in alcohols and ammonia. With a monoclinic crystal structure and a density of 3.90 g/cm³, it remains stable at room temperature. It melts at about 560 °C with partial decomposition and oxygen release. Its water solubility rises with temperature: moderately soluble in cold water (4.74 g/100 mL at 0 °C) and highly soluble in boiling water (32.3 g/100 mL at 100 °C).


Product Application of Potassium iodate CAS#7758-05-6

Potassium iodate is a relatively strong oxidizing agent, widely applied in the assay of multiple pharmaceutical substances, such as benzalkonium chloride, cetrimide, hydralazine hydrochloride, potassium iodide, phenylhydrazine hydrochloride, semicarbazide hydrochloride and other related compounds.
Under appropriate experimental conditions, potassium iodate can undergo quantitative reactions with both iodides and elemental iodine. Notably, iodate titration can be carried out efficiently even in the presence of saturated organic acids, alcohols and numerous other organic substances.
The oxidation-reduction analytical methods using potassium iodate are generally based on the formation of iodine monochloride (ICl) in a strongly acidic hydrochloric acid medium.

FAQ

Q1: Is Huafeng Chemical a manufacturer or a trader?
A: We are a professional service provider specializing in chemical foreign trade. Rather than being limited to the products of a single factory, we leverage the chemical industry cluster in Shandong Province to integrate production resources from multiple high-quality manufacturers. This allows us to offer a wide range of sourcing options—covering various product categories and origins—instead of simply pushing a single product. Furthermore, our core competitiveness lies in our professional foreign trade services (covering documentation, logistics, and regulatory compliance), ensuring a smooth and worry-free procurement process for you.


Q2: How is the security of my transaction guaranteed when working with Huafeng Chemical?
A: We strictly adhere to international trade rules (Incoterms® 2020) and accept various payment methods, such as Letters of Credit (L/C) and Telegraphic Transfers (T/T). For new clients, we support small-batch trial orders and can clearly define arbitration clauses and applicable laws within the contract. Additionally, we maintain a robust risk management system to help you mitigate common trade risks, such as exchange rate fluctuations, shipping delays, and document discrepancies.


Q3: Do you have experience serving clients in Russian-speaking regions?
A: Yes. We place great importance on the Russian-speaking market; our team includes Russian-speaking business professionals who are well-versed in the import regulations of Russia and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). We understand the importance of EAC certification to clients in these regions and can assist with related compliance inquiries. We have established connections with chemical traders across various CIS countries and have gained valuable experience in specialized packaging and temperature-controlled shipping designed to withstand harsh local winter conditions.


Q4: How do you guarantee product quality?
A: We implement a strict supplier qualification and periodic audit system. A Certificate of Analysis (COA)—issued by the original manufacturer—is provided with every shipment. We also welcome pre-shipment inspections conducted by internationally recognized third-party agencies such as SGS, BV, or ITS. Should the test results fail to meet the standards specified in the contract, you have the right to reject the goods or request a replacement.
