Thallium iodide Uses

Added to mercury arc lamps to improve their performance The light produced is mainly in the blue green part of the visible light spectrum least absorbed by water, so these have been used for underwater lighting. Thallium iodide (CAS NO.7790-30-9) is used in trace amounts with NaI or CsI to produce a scintillator used in radiation scintillation detectors.

Thallium iodide Production

 Thallium iodide (CAS NO.7790-30-9) can be formed in aqueous solution by metathesis of any soluble thallium salt with iodide ion. It is also formed as a by-product in thallium-promoted iodination of phenols with thallium(I) acetate.Attempts to oxidise TlI to thallium(III) iodide fail, since oxidation produces the thallium(I) triiodide, Tl+I3−.

Thallium iodide Standards and Recommendations

OSHA PEL: TWA 0.1 mg(Tl)/m3 (skin)
ACGIH TLV: TWA 0.1 mg(Tl)/m3 (skin)

Thallium iodide Specification

 Thallium iodide (CAS NO.7790-30-9) is also called Thallium iodide (Tl2I2) ; Thallium iodide (TlI), dimer ; Thallium iodide (VAN) ; Thallium iodide, TlI ; Thallium monoiodide ; Thallium(1+) iodide ; Thallium(I) iodide . The room temperature form of  Thallium iodide (CAS NO.7790-30-9) is yellow and has an orthorhombic structure which can be considered to be a distorted NaCl structure. The distorted structure is believed to be caused by favourable thallium-thallium interactions, the closest Tl-Tl distance is 383pm. At 175 °C the yellow form transforms to a red CsCl form. This phase transition is accompanied by about two orders of magnitude jump in electrical conductivity. The CsI structure can be stabilized down to room temperature by doping TlI with other iodides such as RbI, CsI, KI, AgI, TlBr and TlCl . Thus, presence of impurities might be responsible for coexistence of the cubic and orthorombic TlI phases at ambient conditions. Under high pressure, 160kbar, TlI becomes a metallic conductor.
