Product Details
Guanidine phosphate, with the molecular formula CH₆N₃·H₃PO₄ (or more precisely C(NH₂)₃H₂PO₄) and a molecular weight of approximately 170.09, is a salt formed from guanidine and phosphoric acid. It typically appears as a white crystalline powder or crystals, with higher-purity products being pure white and free from visible impurities. This compound is highly soluble in water, producing a colorless and transparent solution (for example, a 4% aqueous solution is clear), while it has low solubility in organic solvents.
