Potassium iodide is a raw material for the preparation of iodides and dyes. It is used as a photographic light emulsifier and food additive. It is used as a tincture, diuretic, goiter prevention and thyroid hyperfunction surgery in medicine, and is also used as an analytical reagent. It is used as a photographic emulsifier in the photographic industry and also as a pharmaceutical and food additive.

2. Potassium iodide is used for the pharmaceutical industry Potassium iodide is used as an analytical reagent, such as preparing an iodine standard solution as an auxiliary reagent. It is also used as a photographic emulsifier, feed additive, and pharmaceutical industry.

3. Potassium iodide can be added with iodine table salt The so-called iodized edible salt that we often eat is to add potassium iodide or potassium iodate (in proportion to 20,000) to ordinary salt (pure sodium chloride).

4. Potassium iodide has some special uses in the field of dermatology. Its mechanism of action is partly due to enhanced dissolution and digestion of necrotic tissue. Potassium iodide also has antifungal activity. It is used clinically to treat sporotrichosis, pigmented blastomycosis, persistent nodular erythema, and nodular vasculitis.
