Phytic acid

Phytic acid solution
Chemical name: Phytic acid, Inositol hexaphosphate, Inositol hexaphosphoric acid, Fytic acid.
Molecular formula: C6H18O24P6      
Molecular weight: 660.04     CAS No. 83-86-3
Structural formula:肌醇六磷酸

Phytic acid is an important organic phosphorus series additive. The aqueous solution is strongly acidic, with a strong chelating ability, which can precipitate Fe ions quantitatively under low pH; at medium or high pH, it can form soluble complexes with all other divalent cations; it can significantly inhibit the oxidation of vitamin C, and when mixed with vitamin E, it has a synergistic antioxidant effect.
The antioxidant properties of phytic acid lie in its ability to undergo a very strong chelation reaction with metal ions, with a chelating force similar to EDTA, but with a wider range of applications than EDTA.
Phytic acid is used as a chelating agent, antioxidant, preservative, color preservative, water softener, fermentation promoter, metal anti-corrosion agent.
