Sodium iodide, anhydrous is an inorganic salt composed of sodium and iodine, primarily used in pharmaceuticals, X-ray imaging, and as a reagent in chemical synthesis. It serves as a source of iodide ions in various applications, including thyroid hormone production and analytical chemistry. It is also used in photographic processing, as a solvent for iodine, in cloud seeding, and, when doped with thallium, as a scintillation crystal for radiation detection. CAS number 7681-82-5, with the molecular formula NaI and a molecular weight of 149.9. It is stored at ambient conditions and carries a signal word of Danger due to its potential hazards. Molekula supplies sodium iodide, anhydrous from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
