Description

Zinc Glycerophosphate is an organometallic compound that serves as a highly bioavailable source of both zinc and phosphorus. This unique combination makes it a valuable functional ingredient for applications requiring mineral fortification and stabilization. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the nutraceutical, food, and personal care industries to enhance product efficacy and shelf life.

Application

• Dietary Supplements & Nutraceuticals: As a bioavailable mineral source in multivitamin, zinc, and bone health formulations.
• Functional Food & Beverage Fortification: For enriching products like cereals, dairy alternatives, and health drinks with essential minerals.
• Pharmaceutical Preparations: Used in mineral supplement tablets, capsules, and liquid tonics.
• Oral Care Products: Incorporated into toothpaste and mouthwash for its potential enamel-strengthening and anti-plaque properties.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Acts as a skin-conditioning agent and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and deodorants.
• Animal Nutrition (Feed Premixes): As a mineral supplement in feed for livestock, poultry, and aquaculture to support growth and health.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can lead to caking or degradation.
