Calcium iodateis an inorganic compound composed of calcium dication and iodate anion. It is a colourless salt that occurs naturally as the mineral called lautarite, which is found in the Atacama Desert in Chile.[1]

Production and reactions

It can also be formed by the anodic oxidation of calcium iodide or by passing chlorine into a hot solution of lime in which iodine has been dissolved.

Uses

The mineral is a commercially useful precursor to iodine. Processing of the ore entails reduction of its aqueous extracts with sodium bisulfite to give sodium iodide. Via a comproportionation reaction, the sodium iodide is combined with the iodate salt to produce elemental iodine.[1]

Calcium iodate can also be used as an iodine supplement in chicken feed.[1]

Calcium iodate is used in the manufacture of disinfectants, antiseptics, and deodorants.[2][3]
