Ferric Phosphate extra pure

In stock

Description

Ferric Phosphate extra pure is a high-purity inorganic compound of iron in the +3 oxidation state combined with phosphate ions, with the chemical formula FePO4. It is typically found as a pale beige to yellowish-white orthorhombic crystalline powder that is odorless and slightly soluble in water but soluble in mineral acids. This compound is stable, non-toxic, and widely used as an iron source in dietary supplements, food fortification, and as a mineral feed additive.

Ferric phosphate is commercially produced through controlled chemical reactions between iron(III) salts (such as ferric chloride or ferric citrate) and phosphate sources, followed by purification steps to ensure high purity and consistent particle size. It has applications in fertilizers, feed additive formulations, pharmaceuticals, and environmental control processes such as wastewater treatment. The compound is stable at room temperature and has a high melting point near 1000°C.
