Quality Control

Our Sodium Iodate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure it meets specifications for purity, identity, and performance. We can supply grades including Technical, Reagent, and Food Grade (FCC), with compliance to relevant standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from incompatible materials such as combustible substances, strong reducing agents, and acids. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. Recommended storage temperature: 15-25°C.
