Description

Citric Acid, Ammonium Iron(3+) Manganese(2+) Zinc Salt is a complex inorganic salt derived from citric acid, functioning as a multi-mineral source. This compound is valued for its role in providing bioavailable iron, manganese, and zinc in a single, stable formulation. It is primarily required by manufacturers in the animal feed and nutritional supplement industries, where it serves as a critical mineral premix ingredient to support metabolic functions and overall health.

Application

• Animal Feed Additive: Used as a source of essential trace minerals (Fe, Mn, Zn) in premixes for poultry, swine, and aquaculture to prevent deficiencies and promote growth.
• Nutritional Supplements: Incorporated into vitamin-mineral complexes for human dietary supplements due to its good bioavailability and stability.
• Fertilizer Industry: Acts as a micronutrient fertilizer and chelating agent in agricultural formulations to enhance plant uptake of iron, manganese, and zinc.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: Serves as a starting material or excipient in the synthesis of certain mineral-based pharmaceutical preparations.
• Industrial Catalysts: May be utilized in specific chemical synthesis processes where its metal ions can act as catalysts.
• Food Fortification: Potential use in specialized food products for mineral fortification, subject to regulatory approval for the target market.
