Betaine HCl, with the CAS number 590 - 46 - 5, is a white crystalline powder. Its chemical formula is C5H11NO2·HCl. It has a molecular weight of approximately 153.60 g/mol. The product is sourced directly from the factory, ensuring high - quality raw materials and a cost - effective price. It has a high degree of purity, usually above 99%, which guarantees its reliability in various applications. The melting point of betaine HCl is around 227 - 228°C, and it is soluble in water.
1. Dietary Supplements: Betaine HCl is commonly used in dietary supplements. It can help improve digestion by increasing stomach acid levels. Adequate stomach acid is essential for the breakdown of proteins, absorption of nutrients such as vitamins B12 and iron, and prevention of certain digestive disorders like bloating, indigestion, and constipation.
2. Animal Feed: In the animal feed industry, betaine HCl can be added to the feed of livestock and poultry. It can promote the growth and development of animals, improve feed conversion efficiency, and enhance the immunity of animals, reducing the incidence of diseases.
3. Pharmaceutical Industry: It is also used in the pharmaceutical field. It can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of some drugs, playing a role in adjusting the chemical properties of drugs and improving their efficacy.
4. Cosmetics: In the cosmetics industry, betaine HCl can be used as a humectant and pH regulator. It can help maintain the moisture of the skin and hair, and keep the pH value of cosmetics within a suitable range, thus improving the stability and usability of products.
1. Dietary Supplements: For adults, it is generally recommended to take 1 - 2 capsules with meals, depending on individual digestive needs. However, people with stomach ulcers, high stomach acid, or other serious digestive diseases should consult a doctor before taking it.
2. Animal Feed: When used in animal feed, the dosage should be determined according to the type of animals, their growth stage, and the composition of the feed. Generally, the recommended addition amount is 0.1% - 0.3% of the total feed weight. It should be evenly mixed in the feed to ensure that each animal can get an appropriate amount.
3. Pharmaceutical Synthesis: In the pharmaceutical industry, the use of betaine HCl should follow strict chemical synthesis procedures. Professional chemists need to accurately measure the amount according to the reaction formula and conduct the reaction under appropriate temperature, pressure, and other conditions.
4. Cosmetics: In cosmetics, the addition amount of betaine HCl is usually 0.5% - 2% of the total formula. It should be added during the production process to ensure even dispersion in the product.
1. Dietary Supplement Case: Mr. Smith, a 45 - year - old man, had long - term indigestion problems, such as bloating and abdominal discomfort after meals. After taking betaine HCl dietary supplements for two months, following the recommended dosage of 2 capsules per meal, he reported a significant improvement in his digestion. The bloating was reduced, and he could better absorb nutrients from his food, which also led to an increase in his energy levels.
2. Animal Feed Case: A pig farm added betaine HCl to the pig feed at a rate of 0.2% of the total feed weight. After three months, the average weight of the pigs increased by 10% compared to the previous batch without betaine HCl addition. The feed conversion ratio also improved, reducing the overall feed cost for the farm.
3. Pharmaceutical Case: A pharmaceutical company used betaine HCl as an intermediate in the synthesis of a new anti - inflammatory drug. The use of betaine HCl improved the reaction efficiency and the purity of the final product, resulting in a more effective and stable drug.
4. Cosmetics Case: A cosmetic brand added betaine HCl to its moisturizing lotion at a concentration of 1%. After a market test, consumers reported that their skin felt more hydrated and smooth. The lotion
