Description

Application
Mobile phase additive in HPLC and LC-MS analysis. Buffer preparation in analytical chemistry. Organic synthesis and reduction reactions. Pharmaceutical and biochemical research. Electroplating and metal treatment processes. Protein and peptide analysis in laboratories.

Purpose
Its main purpose is to act as a buffering agent reducing agent and volatile salt in chemical and analytical processes especially where residue-free decomposition is required.

General Description
It is water-soluble chemical compound with the formula NH4HCO2. It is relatively unstable when heated and can decompose into gases such as ammonia and formic acid derivatives. It is widely used in laboratory and industrial applications because of its buffering and reducing properties.
