Description

Calcium Diiodostearate is a specialized organoiodine compound where iodine is covalently bound to a fatty acid backbone and stabilized with calcium. This compound matters for its role as a controlled-release source of iodine and as a functional additive in high-performance materials. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the polymer, lubricant, and specialty chemical industries seeking to impart specific properties like stabilization, biocidal activity, or modified rheology.

Application

As a stabilizer and biocide in polymer formulations, including PVC and polyolefins.
As a lubricant additive to enhance extreme pressure (EP) properties and reduce wear in industrial greases and oils.
As a controlled iodine-release agent in animal feed supplements and disinfectant formulations.
As a processing aid in the production of specialty elastomers and plastics.
As a functional intermediate in the synthesis of more complex iodinated organic compounds.
In research and development for novel material science and pharmaceutical applications.

Quality Control

Our Calcium Diiodostearate is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, iodine content, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is light-sensitive and easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to maintain optimal quality.
