Baisfu Creatine Monohydrate CAS 6020-87-7 White Powder

Creatine monohydrate is a stable crystal formed by the combination of creatine and one molecule of water (chemical formula C₄H₉N₃O₂・H₂O). Creatine is a nitrogen-containing organic acid naturally present in human muscle tissue. The monohydrate form greatly enhances its stability and solubility, and it is widely used in sports nutrition and other fields. It is a core functional ingredient for "energy supplementation + muscle maintenance".

Chemical Composition: A single chemical substance, commercially available products typically have a purity ≥99% (food grade/pharmaceutical grade). It is composed of creatine (2-amino-1-methylimidazolidine-4-one) and one molecule of water of crystallization bonded together by hydrogen bonds, retaining all the physiological activity of creatine and exhibiting superior physicochemical properties.

Physical Properties: At room temperature, it is a white crystalline powder or crystalline powder, odorless, with a slightly bitter taste; readily soluble in water, slightly soluble in ethanol; melting point approximately 295-300℃ (decomposes), exhibiting good thermal stability and not easily decomposed under conventional food processing and health product preparation temperatures; its aqueous solution is neutral.

Chemical Properties: Highly stable, not easily oxidized or degraded in acidic or neutral environments, resistant to storage and processing; highly compatible with sugars (such as glucose and maltodextrin), amino acids, vitamins, etc., and does not readily undergo chemical reactions, allowing it to exist stably in various product systems.

• Sports Nutrition Field

  Sports Supplements: Formulated as single-ingredient creatine powder or capsules, or compounded with protein powder, amino acids, and glucose, these sports nutrition supplements are used to enhance explosive power, increase muscle mass, and accelerate post-exercise recovery. Suitable for fitness enthusiasts and athletes for daily training and competition support.

  Functional Sports Foods: Used in energy bars, sports drinks, protein bars, etc., providing immediate energy for high-intensity exercise while supplementing the nutrients needed for muscle repair, meeting nutritional needs during and after exercise.

• Health Supplement Field

  Muscle Maintenance Supplements: Used in health supplements for the prevention of sarcopenia in middle-aged and elderly individuals and for post-operative muscle recovery, helping to maintain muscle mass and function, and improving problems such as fatigue and decreased athletic ability.

  Energy Supplements: Used in health supplements to relieve fatigue and enhance energy, providing energy for mental and physical laborers and improving mental state.

• Food Field
  Fortified Foods: Used in high-protein foods, foods for the elderly, and foods specifically for the recovery period, etc., enhancing energy supplementation and muscle maintenance functions, compensating for the lack of creatine in natural foods (plant-based foods contain almost no creatine).

  Special foods: These are foods specifically designed for vegetarians and athletes, providing targeted creatine supplementation to meet the nutritional needs of specific populations.

1. Direct and rapid energy replenishment: Creatine is the precursor to phosphocreatine in muscle cells. Phosphocreatine can be rapidly broken down into ATP (adenosine triphosphate), providing immediate energy for high-intensity, short-duration exercise (such as weightlifting and sprinting), significantly improving athletic performance and explosive power.

2. Clear muscle-building benefits: It increases water and energy reserves within muscle cells, promotes muscle protein synthesis, and helps increase muscle volume and strength; it also reduces post-exercise muscle damage and delayed onset soreness, accelerating recovery, making it suitable for athletes and those with muscle-building needs.

3. Natural and safe with high tolerability: It is naturally found in meat, fish, and other foods, and can also be synthesized in small amounts by the human liver and kidneys; the artificial synthesis (chemical synthesis or microbial fermentation) process is mature, resulting in high product purity and few impurities; it is non-toxic and has no obvious side effects when used within the prescribed dosage; only a very small number of people may experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort, making the risk of daily use extremely low.

4. Wide adaptability and stable supply: It is easily soluble in water and can be made into various dosage forms such as powder, capsules, and oral liquids, making it suitable for sports nutrition supplements, health products, functional foods and other scenarios; the industrial production technology is mature, the output is stable, the cost is controllable, and it is suitable for large-scale application.
