Ammonium Iron Citrate or Ammonium Ferric Citrate is red brown powder or granule, odorless, with salty and slightly iron taste. It is easily soluble in water but insoluble in ethanol. It is easy to dissolve moisture in the air and unstable to light. Ammonium ferric citrate has the formula (NH4)5[Fe(C6H4O7)2]. A distinguishing feature of this compound is that it is very soluble in water, in contrast to ferric citrate which is not very soluble. In its crystal structure, each citric acid moiety has lost four protons, and the deprotonated hydroxyl groups act as ligands together with four carboxylate groups; two carboxylate groups are not coordinated to the ferric ion.
1.Nutritional supplements (iron-fortified). Used for dairy products, bread made from wheat flour, and add in the biscuits, powdered milk, food not suitable for not coloring. Ammonium iron citrate iron as food enhancer, better absorbed than inorganic iron.
2.Used in the photographic industry, pharmaceutical industry, can also be used as anti-caking agent.
3.Used for microbiological culture, such as iron and manganese bacteria medium for laboratory cultures that are commonly used in JFM, which added ammonium ferric citrate, also has a similar medium is added to the product.

It is widely used, also the inorganic color pigment No.1 output and demand product. In the construction, it is used as dye or colorant is various prefabricated concrete parts and architectural products and materials, such as color floor tiles, color facing bricks, terrazzo and roofing tiles; As colorant and protection materials in coatings and paint, including water-based exterior and interior wall coatings, oil paints, such as primer and finish paints and anticorrosion paint; As dye in plastic and rubber, such as thermosetting plastic and thermoplastic and rubber track; In addition, it can be also applied color up in paper, leather, ceramics,cosmetic and medicine.

Ferric ammonium citrate, also known as ferric ammonium citrate, has two kinds of brown and green, odorless, salty taste and iron smell, easy to absorb moisture, due to light can be reduced into ferrous salt, solution state is more unstable, soluble in water, insoluble in ethanol, ether and other organic solvents, aqueous solution is neutral, green is more likely to be reduced by light than brown. Brown scales of ferric ammonium citrate had a higher iron content, whereas green scales of ferric ammonium citrate had a lower iron content.
