Bismuth(III) iodide is the inorganic compound with the formula BiI3, is a grey-black solid with the reaction of bismuth and iodine, which once was of interest in qualitative inorganic analysis and technically used as an environmentally friendly catalyst in chemical synthesis and in certain semiconductor and imaging applications. Bismuth(III) iodide adopts a distinctive crystal structure, with iodide centres occupying a hexagonally closest-packed lattice and bismuth centres occupying either none or two-thirds of the octahedral holes (alternating by layer); therefore, it is said to occupy one third of the total octahedral holes. Commonly referred to as bismuth triiodide or bismuthine triiodide by bismuth iodide manufacturers. We are the leading Bismuth (III) Iodide supplier worldwide with reliable lead times and global supply capability.
