Applications
Potassium Iodate (KIO3) may be used as an oxidizing agent in the estimation of hydrolyzable tannins (gallotannins and ellagitannins) in plant samples. It may also be used in the preparation of polyaniline,poly(o-anisidine),poly[aniline-co-(o-anisidine) and TiO2 nanoparticles.
Potassium Iodate also used for Iodization of edible salt
There are two forms of iodine that can be used to iodize salt: iodide and iodate, usually as the potassium salt. Iodate is less soluble and more stable than iodide and is therefore preferred for tropical moist conditions. Both are generally referred to as iodized salt.
Potassium Iodide also most commonly used in TABLE SALT to get iodide level in the salt...
Simply add 20 to 50 mg of Potassium Iodide / Potassium Iodate to 1 Kg Sale to get 20 to 50 ppm iodide label in the salt.
Pl. note Potassium iodide (KI) having 77% iodine percentage while potassium iodate (KIO3) have only 59% iodine. So pl. use what ppm level you required in your TABLE SALT.
Dosage and directions
Potassium Iodate occurs as a white, crystalline powder. KIO3 can be used as a substitute of KI in radiation protection. A kinetic study of thermal degradation of KIO3 by γ-rays suggests that rate of decomposition increases while activation energy decreases upon irradiation.
