Pure ammonium formate decomposes into formamide and water when heated, and this is its primary use in industry. Formic acid can also be obtained by reacting ammonium formate with a dilute acid, and since ammonium formate is also produced from formic acid, it can serve as a way of storing formic acid. Ammonium formate can also be used in palladium on carbon (Pd / C) reduction of functional groups. In the presence of Pd / C, ammonium formate decomposes to hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and ammonia. Ammonium formate can be used for reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones (Leuckart reaction) Ammonium formate can be used as a buffer in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and is suitable for use with liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). . |

It is derived from the neutralization of formic acid and ammonia. The formic acid and water are frozen, ammonia gas is passed under stirring to make the pH value 7-7.5, the temperature is lowered to -5°C, and the filter is shaken to obtain ammonium formate.

Ammonium formate is an excellent antiseptic and preservative in foods, foods, flavors and drinks, but it has no antioxidant effect. Vitamin C (Vitamin C) has reductive properties that can eliminate carcinogenic nitroso and free radicals that cause aging, so it has the effects of anti-aging, anti-cancer, anti-oxidation, anti-scurvy, anti-fatigue, anti-inflammatory, and disinfection. It is an excellent anti-oxidant preservative in foods, foods, tastes and drinks.
