Exceptional Purity and Stability

Sodium Iodide stands out for its high purity, with a minimum of 99%, and low levels of moisture (<0.5%) and heavy metals (<0.001% as Pb). It exhibits remarkable stability when stored in recommended conditions, ensuring its effectiveness over its 2-year shelf life. This reliability makes it a preferred choice for demanding laboratory and pharmaceutical operations.

Versatile Applications Across Industries

Thanks to its solubility in water and alcohol, Sodium Iodide is widely adopted in pharmaceuticals, as an analytical reagent, in radiation detection, and even in nutritional supplements. Its crystalline, odorless form makes it easy to handle and measure precisely, while its photosensitive nature is ideal for use in specific photographic processes.

Safe Handling and Storage Guidelines

Being non-poisonous yet an irritant, Sodium Iodide must be handled with care. It should be stored tightly sealed in cool, dry, dark locations, in opaque containers, away from acids and oxidizing agents. These precautions prevent degradation and exposure, ensuring both user safety and product longevity.

FAQs of Sodium Iodide:

Q: How should Sodium Iodide be stored to maintain its stability and quality?

A: Sodium Iodide should be stored tightly sealed in an opaque container, placed in a cool, dry, and dark environment away from acids and oxidizing agents. Proper storage prevents moisture absorption and decomposition caused by light exposure.

Q: What process is used for packaging Sodium Iodide, and are custom options available?

A: Sodium Iodide is packaged in HDPE drums and glass bottles by default, but custom packaging can be arranged to meet specific user requirements, ensuring safe transport and storage tailored to individual needs.

Q: When is Sodium Iodide most effectively used as a pharmaceutical intermediate or analytical reagent?

A: Sodium Iodide is most effective in chemical analysis and pharmaceutical processes when high purity and stability are required. Its analytical and laboratory-grade variants guarantee reliable results due to stringent quality controls.

Q: What are the main benefits of using Sodium Iodide in radiation detection?

A: Sodium Iodides high solubility, purity, and crystal structure make it highly sensitive for detecting radiation, thus serving as a reliable medium in medical imaging and environmental monitoring instruments.

Q: Where can Sodium Iodide be supplied and who are the main distributors in India?

A: Sodium Iodide is available from distributors, exporters, importers, manufacturers, retailers, suppliers, traders, and wholesalers across India, making it accessible for research and industrial use nationwide.

Q: Is Sodium Iodide hazardous, and what precautions should be taken during usage?

A: While non-poisonous, Sodium Iodide may cause irritation to the skin, eyes, or respiratory tract. Users should handle it with care, employing protective gloves and eyewear, and ensuring good ventilation in work areas.
