An iodophor is a preparation containing iodine complexed with a solubilizing agent, such as a surfactant or water-soluble polymers, for example, povidone. The result is a water-soluble material that releases free iodine when in solution. Iodophors are prepared by mixing iodine with the solubilizing agent; heat can be used to speed up the reaction.   Wikipedia
