We are renowned as a leading name engaged in distributing and supplying an excellent quality spectrum of Potassium iodate in Ankleshwar, Gujarat, India. Potassium iodate is used for iodination of table salt to prevent iodine deficiency. Because iodide can be oxidized to iodine by molecular oxygen under wet conditions, US companies add thiosulfates or other antioxidants to the potassium iodide. In other countries, potassium iodate is used as a source for dietary iodine. It is also an ingredient in some baby formula milk.

Like potassium bromate, potassium iodate is occasionally used as a maturing agent in baking.
