USP and ACS Iodine | Bookmark | |||||
SWIM was dreaming last night and found a source of iodine which sells USP and ACS for under $20/lb. The only problem to my dream is that I did not know if they were in crystal form, and couldn't think of a good way to ask the supplier. Any suggestions? "...I read like, 8 or 9 books a week. I also do alot of speed." -Will Ferrell, That 70's Show |

If it is USP or ACS grade, then it definitely is in its crystalline form. |

From everything I've read, ACS is the highest grade you can get. USP is third in purity, after Reagent. http://www.carolina.com/chemistry/resour \\|// τΏτ -- Semper ubi sub ubi! \O/ ''' |

Either the seller has boosted the I2 and wants to dump it at any cost, or else you are walking into a trap (stingo) my friend. $20 USD a pound is far too cheap to be a legit source. Is cheese right or wrong, cheese wouldn't go near that offer with a 100 foot pole. But this game is full of chance taking isn't it. That's why cheese prefers never to participate in shit. ![]() GOOD LUCK May The Source Bee With Yous |

Isn't the grade a measurement of how often it is checked under QC? Granted the guidelines may be stricter, but for our purposes, wouldn't Technical to Reagent suffice? A theory is a tool - not a creed. -J. J. Thomson |

Cheese: No, bromine and iodine are not universally interchangeable, although it is in some instances. |
