Product Description

Basic Information

Product Name: Ammonium Lactate
Chemical Formula: C3H7NO3
Molar Mass: 107.10 g/mol
CAS Number: 515-03-7
Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid. Odorless or with a slight ammonia smell. Highly hygroscopic in pure solid form; industrial products are mostly solutions (common concentration: 50% aqueous solution).
Solubility: Highly soluble in water and ethanol; insoluble in oils.

Main Applications

1. Pharmaceuticals and Cosmetics

Keratin Conditioner: Used in skincare products (lotions, creams) as an α-hydroxy acid (AHA) to promote keratin metabolism and improve skin roughness.
Moisturizing Exfoliant: Gently exfoliates while providing hydration through hygroscopic lactate ions.
pH Regulator: Maintains acid-base balance in shampoos and body washes.
Pharmaceutical Buffer: Solvent for oral liquid preparations and antibiotic solutions.

2. Food Industry

Acidity Regulator & Preservative: Used in meat products (ham, sausages) to inhibit microbial growth and extend shelf life.
Flavor Improvement: Adjusts pH in dairy and baked goods.
Chelating Agent: Prevents food oxidation and discoloration in fruit juices.

3. Industrial Uses

Metal Processing: Surface treatment for rust removal and cleaning before electroplating.
Textile Dyeing: Regulates dye bath pH for better adsorption.
Agriculture: Feed additive to adjust gastrointestinal acidity and promote digestion.

Safety and Handling

Hazards: High-concentration solutions may cause mild skin/eye irritation. Ammonia vapor may irritate the respiratory tract.
Toxicity: Low toxicity (oral LD50 in rats: ~3500 mg/kg).
Precautions: Use rubber gloves and goggles. Store in a cool, dry, sealed environment away from oxidizing agents.
Compliance: Approved by FDA (21 CFR §184.1140) and EFSA.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the primary use of Ammonium Lactate in cosmetics? A1: It acts as an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) to exfoliate dead skin cells and as a humectant to moisturize, making it ideal for treating dry or scaly skin.

Q2: How should Ammonium Lactate solution be stored? A2: It should be kept in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Ensure containers are tightly sealed to prevent the evaporation of ammonia and absorption of moisture.

Q3: Is Ammonium Lactate safe for food applications? A3: Yes, it is approved by the FDA and EFSA as a safe food additive, commonly used as an acidity regulator and preservative.

Q4: Does Ammonium Lactate have a strong odor? A4: Commercial aqueous solutions are generally odorless or may have a very slight, mild ammonia scent.

Q5: Can the packaging be customized for bulk orders? A5: Yes, we provide various options from 1kg bags to 25-ton tanks, and we can customize packaging based on specific customer requirements.

Q6: What is the typical concentration of industrial Ammonium Lactate? A6: While it can vary, the most common industrial form is a 50% to 60% aqueous solution due to its hygroscopic nature.
