Calcium Iodate
Industrial Applications
Calcium Iodate is an inorganic iodate salt used primarily as a source of iodine in industrial, agricultural, and nutritional applications. It is commonly used as an iodine supplement in animal feed and fertilizers to prevent iodine deficiency in livestock and crops. In the food industry, Calcium Iodate is used as a dough conditioner and iodine fortification agent in bread and bakery products, where it helps improve dough strength and consistency. Calcium Iodate is also used in chemical manufacturing and laboratory applications as an oxidizing agent and as a precursor for other iodine-containing compounds.
Physical Properties
Calcium Iodate is a white to off-white crystalline solid that is odorless and stable under normal conditions. It has low solubility in water and is insoluble in most organic solvents. The compound is non-volatile and exhibits good thermal stability, making it suitable for solid formulations and industrial handling. Calcium Iodate maintains its chemical integrity during storage when kept dry and protected from reducing agents.
