Product description

Physical and chemical properties:

Ferrous fumarate FFA1 is slightly soluble in water, easily soluble in dilute acids, and insoluble in organic solvents such as ethanol. It may absorb a small amount of moisture in humid environments and may be oxidized to ferric compounds in the presence of strong oxidants.

Applications

Ferrous fumarate FFA1 is used for the treatment of iron-deficiency anemia. It has a high iron content and is hardly oxidized to ferric iron, so it is well absorbed by the human body.
