Due to its specific melting range the product may be solid, liquid, a solidified melt or a supercooled melt.
Diiodomethane or methylene iodide, commonly abbreviated "MI", is an organoiodine compound. Diiodomethane is a colorless liquid; however, it decomposes upon exposure to light liberating iodine, which colours samples brownish.
Because of its high density, diiodomethane is used in the determination of the density of mineral and other solid samples.It can also be used as an optical contact liquid, in conjunction with the gemmological refractometer, for determining the refractive index of certain gemstones.
