Potassium Iodide (CAS NO : 7681-11-0)

Potassium lodide (KI) is the most widely recognized source of iodine for human nutrition. KI is highly susceptible to sublimation and oxidation, especially when exposed to moisture, light, or acidic environments. However our high-performance Potassium Iodide portfolio is engineered to solve the extreme volatility and stability challenges of iodine fortification, particularly in preventing the "purple staining" and oxidative loss common in standard iodide salts: Nutraceuticals (Thyroid Health Actives, Essential Micronutrients); Food Ingredients (Fortification Agents (Salt/Flour), Iodine Sources); Nutritional Actives (Developmental Micronutrients, Pediatric Premixes). We utilize world-class manufacturing infrastructure, with standards on par with global leaders like DSM and BASF, to deliver Potassium lodide ME & NGLP 1%. By encasing the K 1 in a specialized 1% standardized matrix, we provide Thyro-Block formulators with a stable, easy-to-blend product that eliminates the risk of "hot spots" and ensures 100% assay retention throughout the product shelf life. We are globally established Potassium lodide suppliers, ensuring reliable lead times and quality assurance through comprehensive regulatory documentation, CoA, TDS across all grades/forms.

Chemical Properties & Specifications

Applications of Potassium Iodide

Public Health & Universal Salt Iodization (USI)

Primary active for preventing Iodine Deficiency Disorders (IDD). Our ME technology ensures the iodine remains stable even in low-grade salt, high-humidity environments, and during transport

Infant Nutrition & Formula

Critical micronutrient for Thyroid Hormone Synthesis and cognitive development. Micro-encapsulation ensures zero reaction with sensitive fats or proteins in the formula

Maternal & Prenatal Health

Essential for fetal brain development. Our 1% ME powder allows for high-precision microdosing in prenatal multivitamins

Pharmaceutical Manufacturing

Optimised for high tableting recovery (95–98%), ensuring the delicate iodide ions are not oxidised to molecular iodine (which causes discolouration) during the compression process. Food & Beverage Fortification: Used in the fortification of flour, milk, and condiments. The ME barrier prevents interaction with iron or other minerals that typically cause instability in premixes

Pure K I is used in extremely small quantities (micrograms). Handling pure powder in a large-scale manufacturing plant makes it nearly impossible to achieve a homogenous blend, leading to dangerous "hot spots." Our 1% standardized ME powder allows for accurate weighing and uniform distribution, ensuring every single tablet or serving meets the exact label claim.

lodine is prone to oxidation, which turns products yellow, brown, or purple. Our Micro-encapsulation (ME) shields the K I from air and moisture. This prevents the iodide from converting into elemental iodine, thereby protecting the aesthetic integrity of tablets, salt, and fortified foods.

Yes. Our 1% ME powder is optimized for a high tableting recovery of 95–98%. The micro-capsules are engineered to withstand the mechanical stress of high-speed presses without rupturing, ensuring the iodine remains "masked" and stable within the final tablet matrix.

The NGLP technology provides a slow-release mechanism in the gut. This prevents the sudden "spike" of iodide in the stomach, which can sometimes cause irritation or a metallic aftertaste. It ensures a steady delivery of iodine for optimal thyroid uptake.

We are a globally established supplier providing full regulatory, documentation (Potassium Iodide CoA), and stability support. Every batch is accompanied by 3-month accelerated and 6-month real-time stability data, ensuring your R&D teams have the data required for global compliance and shelf-life validation.
