About Iodine



Iodine is a dark grey to black crystalline solid with a metallic luster, known for its slightly bitter and metallic taste. It is highly reactive, non-metal sublimating at room temperature to form violet vapor. This solid, reagent grade pharmaceutical grade iodine is typically 99% pure, with a molecular weight of 253.81 g/mol. Widely used in antiseptics, medical disinfectants, and chemical synthesis, it has a shelf life of 2-3 years under recommended storage conditions. With a molecular formula I2 and a melting point of 113.7C, its applications extend to topical antiseptics and as a reagent in laboratories.
