Product Details


CAS: 7681-11-0

1. Manufacturing of photosensitive materials (photographic industry) photosensitive emulsion raw materials: In traditional film and paper production, potassium iodide reacts with silver nitrate to produce silver iodide. Silver iodide is extremely sensitive to light and is an essential core photosensitive material for manufacturing high-sensitivity X-ray film, color film, and aerial photography film.

2. Organic synthesis and chemical catalytic iodination reagents: In fine chemical and pharmaceutical synthesis, potassium iodide is commonly used to provide iodine atoms and synthesize various organic iodides through nucleophilic substitution reactions. Catalysts and adjuvants: In some organic polymerization and redox reactions, they are used as catalysts or co catalysts, which can effectively reduce the activation energy of the reaction.

3. Metal processing and surface treatment acid pickling corrosion inhibitor: In the acid pickling and rust removal process of the steel industry, adding potassium iodide can be used as an enhancer of the corrosion inhibitor, which can greatly reduce the corrosion of the acid solution on the metal substrate and prevent metal hydrogen embrittlement

4.Potassium iodide is mainly used as a corrosion inhibitor and enhancer for acid fracturing in oil and gas fields, as well as a component of anti-corrosion agents for oilfield water injection. Its main function is to protect metal pipelines, drill rods, and oil and gas well casings, preventing equipment from corroding in strong acid, high temperature, and highly corrosive environments (such as hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide)
