medical preservatives and analytical reagents | zinc iodide is white or nearly white granular powder in appearance, which gradually turns brown and deliquescent due to the release of iodine in the air. Melting point 446 ℃, boiling point about 624 ℃ (and decomposition), relative density 4.736(25 ℃). Soluble in water, ethanol, ether, ammonia, sodium hydroxide and ammonium carbonate solutions. The aqueous solution is acidic to litmus, and the pH is about 5. It should be moisture-proof and kept in a closed light-proof container. Reagents for the analysis of nitrite, free chlorine and other oxidants, used in photography, medicine as preservatives and local astringents. Preparation method: It is obtained by the interaction of zinc sulfate solution and barium iodide solution, filtering out barium sulfate precipitation, evaporating the filtrate to crystallize it, or directly combining zinc and iodine.

solubility in water (g/100ml) | dissolution grams per 100ml of water at different temperatures (℃): 430g/0 ℃;432g/20 ℃;445g/40 ℃ 467g/60 ℃;490g/80 ℃;510g/100 ℃ |
use | medically used as a local antiseptic disinfectant, astringent, and can be used as a reagent for analyzing nitrite, free chlorine and other oxidants white or nearly white fine particles or powder. Easy deliquescence. When exposed to the air or light, iodine is precipitated and turns brown. It is soluble in ethanol and ether, and slightly soluble in glycerin. Aqueous solution PH ~ 5,mp446 ℃. Used as iodine starch reagent to determine nitrite. Used as a reagent for the analysis of free chlorine and other gasification agents. |
