Ammonium Citrate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Triammonium Citrate
- Ammonium Citrate Tribasic
- Citric Acid, Triammonium Salt
- C6H17N3O7
Ammonium citrate supplier for agricultural, metal-processing, manufacturing and laboratory buyers in Malaysia. This page covers triammonium citrate, a water-soluble crystalline citrate salt used where a formulation needs ammonium and citrate in one specified material.
Commercial requirements include technical crystalline powder for process solutions, an agricultural formulation grade and reagent material for tighter analytical work. Buyers should identify triammonium citrate by CAS 3458-72-8 or formula C6H17N3O7 because diammonium citrate is a separate salt.
Fertiliser formulators may use ammonium citrate in selected soil-amendment or nutrient systems, while industrial users apply its citrate chemistry in complexing, buffering, metal-finishing and specialty cleaning solutions. Laboratory buyers may require reagent-grade purity for buffers and analytical procedures.
Send the required identity, grade, assay or solution specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, and pricing is supplied with a stated validity period.

Ammonium Citrate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical grade triammonium citrate | white crystals or crystalline powder | — | Complexing, buffering and process-solution duties in industrial chemical, metal-processing and specialty cleaning formulations that specify the triammonium salt. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Agricultural formulation grade ammonium citrate | water-soluble crystalline powder | — | Fertiliser and soil-amendment formulations where ammonium citrate is named in the written recipe and the required nutrient and impurity basis is stated by the formulator. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Reagent grade triammonium citrate | white crystals or fine crystalline powder | — | Laboratory buffer preparation, analytical work and controlled process solutions where tighter purity and trace-impurity limits are required. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Common questions about ammonium citrate
Does ammonium citrate mean diammonium or triammonium citrate?
The name can be used broadly, so the identity must be checked. This page covers triammonium citrate, CAS 3458-72-8, also called ammonium citrate tribasic. Diammonium citrate is a different salt and should be ordered separately against its own formula or CAS number.
Is ammonium citrate the same as citric acid?
No. Ammonium citrate is an ammonium salt of citric acid. The triammonium product on this page has its own identity, solution behaviour and assay basis, so citric acid should not be substituted without reformulating the process.
Which ammonium citrate grade suits a fertiliser formulation?
State the exact formulation, required ammonium or citrate basis, solution pH where relevant, impurity limits and intended use. An agricultural formulation grade can then be considered against the written specification rather than selected only by the general product name.
Can triammonium citrate be used to prepare an aqueous process solution?
Triammonium citrate is soluble in water and may be specified for solution preparation. Provide the target concentration, solution pH, water-quality requirement and batch volume so the solid grade or any requested prepared solution can be addressed in the quotation.
What specifications should a buyer provide for ammonium citrate?
Confirm triammonium citrate identity, assay basis, solution pH, loss on drying and any trace-metal or other impurity limits. State whether the material is for agriculture, metal processing, cleaning, manufacturing or laboratory work because each use may require a different control profile.
What details are needed for an ammonium citrate price enquiry?
Provide the grade, target specification, intended use, quantity and delivery location. Mention preferred packing and required product documents so availability and commercial details can be confirmed with the quote.
