KI
Iodide of Potassium
Potassium Iodine
Iodine Potassium Salt
Appearance: White crystalline powder or colorless to white granular solid, highly soluble in water.
Potassium Iodide (KI) is a chemical compound commonly used in pharmaceuticals, laboratory applications, chemical reactions, and iodine supplementation. It is a source of iodide ions and has numerous uses in medicine and industry. Potassium iodide is highly soluble in water and has excellent stability and reactivity. It is known for its role in iodine deficiency prevention, as well as in industrial processes such as disinfection and dyeing.
Molecular Weight: 166.00 g/mol
Density: 3.12 g/cm³
Melting Point: 681°C (1268°F)
Solubility: Soluble in water, ethanol, and acetone. Insoluble in ether.
Reactivity: Stable under normal conditions. Reacts with acids to release iodine gas.
Pharmaceutical Industry:
Iodine Supplementation: Potassium iodide is commonly used as a source of iodine in the treatment of iodine deficiencies, especially in regions with insufficient iodine levels in the diet.
Thyroid Health: It is used in the prevention and treatment of thyroid problems, such as goiter, by providing a readily available source of iodide for the thyroid gland.
Radiation Protection: Potassium iodide is used as a radiation protective agent during nuclear emergencies. It helps to block the thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine, reducing the risk of thyroid cancer.
Chemical and Industrial Applications:
Reagent in Laboratories: KI is used in laboratory settings for various chemical reactions, particularly in iodometric titrations and oxidation-reduction reactions.
Iodine Solution Preparation: Used in the preparation of iodine tinctures and solutions for use as an antiseptic and disinfectant.
Silver Iodide Production: KI is used in the production of silver iodide (AgI), a compound used in photography and cloud seeding.
Dyeing Industry: Potassium iodide is employed as a mordant in the textile industry, enhancing the adhesion of dyes to fabrics.
Food Industry:
Food Additive: Potassium iodide is used as an iodine fortifying agent in table salt and food products to prevent iodine deficiency in populations.
Water Treatment:
Disinfectant: In some water purification processes, KI is used as an oxidizing agent to disinfect water, particularly in small-scale water treatment systems.
Other Applications:
Photography: Potassium iodide is used in the production of light-sensitive films and plates in the photographic industry.
Chemical Reactions: It serves as a reagent in many organic synthesis processes, including the preparation of other iodine compounds.
