Niacinamide (Nicotinamide), also known as Vitamin B3, is a water‑soluble amide form of niacin used as a chemical raw material in industrial formulation systems. Identified by CAS No. 98-92-0, this compound functions as a stable vitamin intermediate involved in coenzyme-related biochemical pathways and is incorporated based on its defined chemical structure rather than reactive behavior. It is commonly applied in pharmaceutical formulations where controlled composition and material consistency are required at the industrial processing level. Supply availability includes competitive factory pricing, support for customized specifications, and complete documentation such as MSDS, TDS, COA for bulk supply.

Product Description
Product Overview
Nicotinamide is provided for industrial use as a vitamin B3 raw material. It is more appropriately positioned as a formulation ingredient and nutritional or pharmaceutical raw material rather than as a finished consumer product.
This product is commonly applied in cosmetic systems, food fortification, pharmaceutical processing, and feed applications. Product selection is generally based on identity consistency, grade standard, purity profile, and compatibility with the intended formulation or industrial use.
