Product overview
Reliable performance, Consistent quality.
Ammonium acetate (NH₄CH₃COO) is a white, hygroscopic crystalline compound that is highly soluble in water and methanol. It is widely used as a buffering agent, intermediate, and processing aid across multiple industries.
Our ammonium acetate is manufactured using controlled neutralization and purification processes to ensure high stability, uniform particle size, and long shelf life.
About ammonium acetate
Ammonium acetate is a white crystalline solid. It is soluble in water and methanol. It is used in chemical analysis, in pharmaceuticals, in preserving foods, and for other uses. Ammonium acetate is a chemical compound with the formula NH4CH3C02. It is a white, hygroscopic solid and can be derived from the reaction of ammonia and acetic acid. It is available commercially.
We manufacture all types of Ammonium Acetate i.e. Ammonium Acetate pure, Ammonium acetate crystal, Ammonium Acetate anhydrous. Ammonium Acetate is manufactured by method by producing an aqueous solution of the ammonium salt of the organic acid through fermentation and/or bioconversion and neutralization.
The solution is then heated to thermally crack the ammonium salt of the organic acid producing a vapour phase of ammonia and water and organic acid which is thereafter passed in contact with a membrane permeable to water and ammonia and substantially impermeable to the organic acid vapour to concentrate the aqueous solution of organic acid, and remove the ammonia and excess water.
