Tannic acid is a specific commercial form of tannin, a type of polyphenol. Its weak acidity (pKa around 10) is due to the numerous phenol groups in the structure. The chemical formula for commercial tannic acid is often given as C76H52O46, which corresponds with decagalloyl glucose, but in fact it is a mixture of polygalloyl glucoses or polygalloyl quinic acid esters with the number of galloyl moieties per molecule ranging from 2 up to 12 depending on the plant source used to extract the tannic acid. Commercial tannic acid is usually extracted from any of the following plant part: Tara pods (Caesalpinia spinosa), gallnuts from Rhus semialata or Quercus infectoria or Sicilian Sumac leaves (Rhus coriaria).
According to the definitions provided in external references such as international pharmacopoeia, Food Chemicals Codex and FAO-WHO tannic acid monograph only tannins sourced from the above-mentioned plants can be considered as tannic acid. Sometimes extracts from chestnut or oak wood are also described as tannic acid but this is an incorrect use of the term. It is a yellow to light brown amorphous powder; 2850 grams dissolves in one litre of water (1.7 moles per liter).
While tannic acid is a specific type of tannin (plant polyphenol), the two terms are sometimes (incorrectly) used interchangeably. The long-standing misuse of the terms, and its inclusion in scholarly articles has compounded the confusion. This is particularly widespread in relation to green tea and black tea, both of which contain tannin but not tannic acid.
Tannic acid is not an appropriate standard for any type of tannin analysis because of its poorly defined composition.

Tannic acid Usage And Synthesis
Physical and Chemical Properties Tannic acid has its structure still remain unclear, and is generally considered to be the ester formed by the five hydroxyl groups of glucose and gallic acid acyl group. The industrial tannic aicd can be obtained by the extraction of Gallic and further concentration. After further purification, we can obtain pharmaceutical or reagent tannic acid.
Tannic acid is a pale yellow amorphous powder or shiny scaly-like or sponge-like solid.
It is suitable for tanning harness leather, sole leather and sheepskin. It is recommended to store it in a cool, dry, ventilated warehouse. It is better to be used in combination with other tanning agents.
