Gallic Acid Powder, also known as trihydroxybenzoic acid, belongs to the phenolic acid category of organic compounds, and its formal scientific name is 3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid. This naturally derived substance can be found in a wide range of plant sources including nuts, sumac, oak bark, tea leaves, witch hazel and many other botanical species. Gallic acid monomers often combine with each other to form dimers, with ellagic acid being one of the most common dimer variants. During the hydrolysis process of hydrolyzable tannins, the compounds break down to produce two different sets of products: one set consists of gallic acid and glucose, while the other is made up of ellagic acid and glucose. These two corresponding types of tannins are named gallotannin and ellagitannin respectively. China Extract Warehouse is a professional Gallic Acid Powder manufacturer and supplier based in China, committed to providing top-quality products at highly competitive market prices. For long-term partnership projects, complimentary product samples are available, and we sincerely look forward to receiving your inquiries.
