Phytic acid – A strong natural ingredient in plants in chelating ability and antioxidant capacity

Name: Phytic Acid/Inositol Hexaphosphate
CAS No.: 83-86-3
Formular:C6H18P6O24
Molecular:660.03636g mol-1
Characteristics: Colorless to pale yellow liquid (a.q. solution), very easy soluble in water, ethanol and acetone, almost insoluble in ether, benzene and chloroform.It’s widely used in food industry, metal-surface treatment, coatings, personal care products.

Phytic acid ( Chemical name: myo-inositol,hexaphosphate ) constitutes 1~3% of most plant seeds, its tremendous chelating potential and it’s effects on the absorption of polycationic nutrilites such as Ca2+, Zn2+ and Fe+3 have been the subject of intense investigation for several decades.This review summarizes the present medical, dental, nutritional and industrial applications of phytic acid and suggests additional novel uses for this inexpensive and easily obtained chemical.

Tips:he organic/natural phytic acid solution appears clear to pale yellow.

It turns out to be clear when it’s done from the production line;

It will gradually become pale yellow, but it will NOT in Dark!!
