Ferric phosphate Usage And Synthesis
Description Ferric phosphate (ferric orthophosphate, iron (III) phosphate, FeP04xH2O) is an odorless, yellowish-white to buff-colored powder and contains from one to four molecules of water of hydration. It is prepared by reaction of sodium phosphate with ferric chloride or ferric citrate. It is insoluble in water and in acetic acid, but is soluble in mineral acids.
Chemical Properties Yellowish-white powder. D 2.87. Insoluble in water; soluble in acids.
Uses Ferric Phosphate is a nutrient supplement that is an odorless, yellow- ish white to buff-colored powder and contains one to four molecules of water of water of hydration. it is prepared by reaction of sodium phosphate with ferric chloride or ferric citrate. it is also termed iron (ii) phosphate.
Uses Ferric phosphate is an inert white powder that is a source of iron and produces no discoloration or rancidity. It contains approximately 28% iron. It is used as a mineral supplement where rancidity is not a problem. It is used in frozen egg substitute, pasta products, and rice products.
Uses Fertilizers, feed and food additive.
Definition ChEBI: An inorganic phosphate having Fe(3+) as the counterion.
