Chemical Structure:
Copper Nicotinate Application:
Copper Nicotinate is a chelate formed by Nicotinic Acid and Copper. It has both the biological activity of copper and the physiological functions of Nicotinic Acid.
Copper Nicotinate can be widely used in different fields as below:
- Feed Additives
As a copper source with high biological utilization rate in ruminant feed, Copper Nicotinate can prevent copper deficiency, promote growth and development, improve reproductive performance and enhance immunity. Compared with copper sulfate, Copper Nicotinate has better stability and fewer side effects. It can reduce the antagonistic effect on iron and zinc absorption and lower the risk of heavy metal residues in feed.
- Pharmaceuticalsand Health Supplements
Copper Nicotinate can be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate for synthesizing copper-containing medicines and it is also used in health supplements to supplement copper and nicotinic acid, thereby improving blood circulation and regulating lipid metabolism. Its antioxidant properties help protect cells from damage caused by free radicals.
- Agriculture
Copper Nicotinate can be used as a foliar fertilizer or soil conditioner to supplement copper in plants, promote chlorophyll synthesis, enhance photosynthesis, improve crop stress tolerance and elevate the quality and yield of agricultural products. And also, copper ions can inhibit certain fungi and bacteria, helping to prevent and control crop diseases.
- Cosmetics and Personal Care
Due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, Copper Nicotinate can be added to skin care products to slow down skin aging, reduce inflammatory responses, promote wound healing and improve skin texture and complexion. It is usually found in anti-wrinkle and repair formulas.
- Chemical catalysis
As an organic synthesis catalyst, Copper Nicotinate can facilitate reactions such as the formation of pyridine derivatives and the generation of amide bonds. It can be also used as a metal chelating agent in water treatment and heavy metal recovery.
