Iron pyrophosphate
Description
Iron pyrophosphate (CAS 10058-44-3 ), also recognized commercially as ferric pyrophosphate, is an inorganic iron salt used across food, pharmaceutical, and agricultural markets as a bioavailable iron source and mineral supplement. Unlike many iron compounds, it delivers iron with minimal organoleptic impact, making it a preferred choice where taste and color neutrality matter. In food fortification, it is incorporated into infant formulas and breakfast cereals. It is used in flour to meet iron enrichment targets without discoloring or imparting metallic off-notes to the finished product. Pharmaceutical manufacturers use it as an active ingredient in iron-deficiency treatments, including oral supplements. In micronized form, it is utilized in intravenous dialysis solutions. In animal nutrition, it functions as a mineral premix component for livestock and poultry feed, supporting iron status in production animals. Flame retardant formulations also incorporate this compound as a char-promoting additive in polymer systems where halogen-free performance is required. It is supplied as a fine powder for various industrial uses. Micronized grades are available for applications requiring enhanced dispersibility and bioavailability. Standard grades include food-grade and USP / Ph.Eur. specifications, with purity levels typically at 95% or higher. Packaging ranges from small pharmaceutical-grade quantities to bulk industrial volumes. This versatile mineral source ensures high stability and performance across diverse manufacturing sectors and global supply chains. Contact us for supply of Iron pyrophosphate Request Quote
