General description

Potassium iodate (KIO3) is a colorless solid having monoclinic crystal system. KI solution undergoes anodic oxidation to afford KIO3. KIO3 has strong oxidizing properties. It has been proposed as a promising corrosion inhibitor for carbon steel.

Application

Potassium iodate (KIO3) may be employed in the following studies:
  • As primary standard reagent for the volumetric estimations.
  • Quantification of hydrolyzable tannins, such as gallotannins and ellagitannins.
  • Winkler method for the estimation of dissolved oxygen.
  • As a co-inhibitor along with sodium tungstate for prevention of corrosion in carbon steel.
