What is Ferric Ammonium Citrate? – Overview and Key Benefits

Ferric Ammonium Citrate is a complex organic iron salt composed of ferric iron (Fe³⁺), ammonium ions, and citric acid. It appears as reddish-brown to garnet red scales, granules, or brownish-yellow powder and is highly soluble in water.

Due to its excellent solubility, stability, and bioavailable iron content (16.5–18.5%), Ferric Ammonium Citrate is widely used in food fortification, pharmaceutical iron supplements, nutraceutical formulations, water treatment, and industrial applications.

Key Benefits

High iron content with excellent bioavailability
Freely soluble in water for easy formulation
Stable and non-reactive under recommended storage
Safe for food, pharmaceutical, and industrial use
Long shelf life with international quality compliance
