FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain
-
Q:
What is Calcium Iodate CAS 7789-80-2?
A: Calcium Iodate is an inorganic iodine salt with the molecular formula CaI2O6 and a molecular weight of 389.88. It is also called calcium diiodate and is normally supplied as an odorless white crystalline solid or crystal. -
Q:
What are the main uses of Calcium Iodate?
A: It is used as an inorganic iodine source in animal feed and nutritional supply chains where the offered grade and local regulations allow. It may also be used in controlled technical, analytical, and industrial applications that require a defined iodate salt. -
Q:
Why is hydrate status important for CAS 7789-80-2?
A: Calcium Iodate can be listed in anhydrous or hydrated forms, and the form affects water content, calculation basis, storage behavior, and specification matching. The current product page is organized around the anhydrous form unless a hydrate grade is specifically required. -
Q:
What are typical specifications for Calcium Iodate?
A: Commercial material is commonly supplied as a white crystalline solid with a molecular weight of 389.88. It is slightly soluble in water and soluble in nitric acid, with a reported density around 4.52 g/mL in some references; assay, hydrate form, and trace impurities should be confirmed for the selected grade. -
Q:
How should Calcium Iodate be stored and handled?
A: Store it tightly closed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from moisture, heat, combustible materials, and reducing agents. Because it is an oxidizing agent, use suitable PPE, avoid dust formation, and follow the current SDS and site procedures.
