What Is Periodic Acid?

Periodic acid is an oxyacid of iodine. It also has the name pentahydroxy(oxo)-λ7-iodane and the CAS number 10450-60-9. Due to its strong oxidizing properties, it’s used as a valuable reagent in chemical reactions.

Periodic Acid Applications

Periodic acid is used to strengthen certain papers in the paper industry, as an oxidizer in chemical reactions and as a weaker acid. Other primary uses in industrial, testing and manufacturing applications include:

Oxidizing agent: The strong oxidizing properties of periodic acid make it valuable as an oxidizing agent in chemical reactions, including oxidizing certain amino acids in proteins and carbohydrates.
Print chemical applications: It strengthens photographic paper and other paper types and removes polymeric stencils from silk screens.
Dye and colorant production: Due to its oxidizing properties, it’s often used in producing dyes and colorants.
Organic synthesis: Periodic acid plays a role in the oxidation of alcohols and preparing periodate esters.
Water quality testing: By measuring organic compounds and some pollutants, periodic acid can be used to test the quality of water in environmental laboratories.
