Potassium iodide Powder Usage and Synthesis.

Potassium iodide is a stabilized salt containing iodine and potassium, which is mainly used in food and feed, life sciences, polymer additives, and chemical processing.

According to the statistics of CKI, the global potassium iodide market size was USD 800 million in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 1.5 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.1% from 2021 to 2030. Among them, the U.S. potassium iodide market size is about $209 million in 2020, and the China potassium iodide market size is about $134 million.

In addition, potassium iodide is also commonly used in the preparation of pharmaceutical iodine/potassium iodide. The medical encyclopedia entry "Iodine/Potassium Iodide" states that potassium iodide is used for the prevention and treatment of endemic goiter, but is contraindicated in pregnant and lactating women.

However, the use of potassium iodide may also bring about some adverse reactions, such as burning sensation in the mouth and throat and a coppery taste in the mouth in long-term application.

Therefore, when using potassium iodide, one should observe the adverse reactions according to the doctor's advice and instructions for use, and stop the drug promptly when necessary.

Uses of Potassium iodide.

Potassium iodide is allowed to use food iodine fortification agent, China's regulations can be used in baby food, the use of 0.3-0.6mg/kg. can also be used in table salt, the use of 30-70mL/kg.

Iodine as a component of thyroxine, involved in the metabolism of all substances in livestock and poultry and maintain internal heat balance is the growth of livestock and poultry, reproduction of lactation essential hormones, can improve the growth performance of livestock and poultry, and promote the health of the body.

If the body of livestock and poultry iodine deficiency, will lead to metabolic disorders, body disorders, goiter, affecting nerve function and fur color and feed digestion and absorption, ultimately leading to slow growth and development.

Potassium iodide is the raw material for iodide and dyes. It is used as a photographic emulsifier. In medicine, it is used as expectorant, diuretic, goiter prevention and treatment agent and pre-surgical drug for hyperthyroidism, and also used in the manufacture of rheumatism and pain relief ointment with pain-relieving and blood-activating effects.

It is the co-solvent of iodine and some insoluble metal iodides. Used as livestock feed additives.

Pharmacological effect of Potassium iodide.

Product Method of Bulk Potassium iodide Powder.

Formic acid reduction method will be industrial grade iodine tablets into the reactor with stirring, add water, under stirring slowly add relative density of about 1.3 potassium hydroxide solution to make the reaction complete. The reaction solution is purple-brown, Ph value is 5-6, some potassium iodate crystals appear in the container. Formic acid was slowly added to the solution to reduce the potassium iodate.

After the reduction of the solution by formic acid and then add caustic potash, adjust the Ph value of 9 ~ 10. Passed into the steam, insulation 1 ~ 2h. Static, filtration to remove insoluble material, get clear filtrate, by evaporation and concentration to most of the crystals precipitation, and then cooling crystallization, centrifugal separation, the crystals will be dried at 110 ° C, to make the finished product of potassium iodide!
