Description

Calcium Iodate is an inorganic compound that serves as a vital source of bioavailable iodine. This high-purity material is essential for applications requiring a stable and consistent iodine supplement. It is a critical raw material for the animal feed, food fortification, and pharmaceutical industries, where precise iodine content and product safety are paramount.

Application

• Animal Feed Additive: A primary source of nutritional iodine in premixes for poultry, swine, and cattle to support thyroid function and metabolic health.
• Food Fortification: Used in the production of iodized salt and other fortified food products to prevent iodine deficiency disorders.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Employed as a starting material or reagent in the synthesis of iodine-containing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Laboratory Reagent: Serves as a standardized iodine source and oxidizing agent in analytical chemistry and research.
• Dough Conditioner: Functions as an oxidizing agent and maturing agent in commercial baking to improve dough strength and texture.
• Water Treatment: Utilized in specific disinfection and oxidation processes within industrial water systems.
