Creatine monohydrate
CAS 6020-87-7

Applications

1.Sports Nutrition & Bodybuilding:

The essential market is that creatine monohydrate is widely used to produce a variety of end products dosage forms, such as creatine monohydrate pure powder, pre-workout matrices, weight gainer and sports capsules.
The core function is that creatine monohydrate accelerates ATP production in mere seconds, markedly raising muscle strength and explosive output. It also boosts intracellular water storage within muscle tissue for a fuller, more defined muscular look, while cutting recovery time after HIIT sessions.

2.Active Aging & Sarcopenia Prevention:

As sarcopenia has garnered growing attention within the medical community, creatine monohydrate, which can mitigate age-related muscle atrophy, sustain baseline skeletal muscle strength, elevate bone mineral density and lower fall risks, is incorporated into senior health formulations.

3.Cognitive & Brain Health:

As is well known, creatine monohydrate is called as a brain-supporting supplement for modern office workers and high-intensity knowledge workers. Because the brain is a kind of highly energy-demanding organ, in the United States and Europe, creatine monohydrate is commonly added to nootropic supplements, which supplies to support brain function for individuals with intense mental demands. In addition, it can alleviate mental decline caused by sleep deprivation, circadian disruptions, or chronic fatigue, while boosting short-term memory and focus under high-stress conditions.

Specifications

Advantages

1.We adopt fully automatic closed-loop reaction and continuous refining crystallization processes, controlling the purity of creatine monohydrate at ≧99% as determined by HPLC analysis. In addition, through multi-stage centrifugation and ultrapure water washing processes, the levels of dicyandiamide (DCD) and creatinine can be controlled at ≤20 ppm and even down to undetectable levels. This performance far exceeds the requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and European Union standards.

2.We possess advanced airflow micronization production lines, supplying ultrafine powder at 200 Mesh and finer particle sizes with an even particle size distribution.

3.We achieve industrial-scale mass production with a monthly capacity of several hundred tons, which helps us gain economies of scale for superior cost-effectiveness. Most importantly, the whole process doesn’t have animal-derived ingredients, eliminating risks of BSE/TSE.

4.We offer full set of documentation, such as TDS, MSDS and COA.

FAQ

Q1: What is the purity of your creatine monohydrate? How to control the level of DCD and creatinine?

A: In conventional manufacturing processes, it tends to form byproducts such as dicyandiamide (DCD) and creatinine under the condition of insufficient reaction. In contrast, the purity of creatine monohydrate maintains at ≧99% as determined by HPLC analysis, which meets the industry’s gold standard. Through multi-stage centrifugation and ultrapure water washing processes, the levels of dicyandiamide (DCD) and creatinine can be controlled at ≤20 ppm and even down to undetectable levels. This performance far exceeds the requirements of the United States Pharmacopeia (USP) and European Union standards.

Q2: What is the difference between your standard-mesh creatine and micronized creatine? How does this difference affect downstream processing?

A：Our flagship product is 200-mesh micronized creatine monohydrate, and we also supply standard 80-mesh powder. The product is processed with advanced jet milling technology to obtain finer particles and uniform particle size distribution. This material mixes easily and leaves no grainy aftertaste for end consumers. For downstream formulators, this micronized powder mixes evenly with other active raw materials such as protein powder and pre-workout blends. It offers consistent blend uniformity and stops raw material segregation and caking throughout large-scale manufacturing.

Q3: Is your creatine monohydrate fully vegan? How is zero cross-contamination guaranteed?

A: Yes! Our creatine monohydrate is synthesized from non-animal-derived raw materials. In addition, our factory is only used to produce non-animal-derived raw materials, preventing the risks of BSE and TSE. It is worth noting that our products hold both Kosher and Halal certifications, which guarantees full regulatory compliance for your brand and enables market access to vegan, plant-based and global religious consumer segments.

Q4: As is well known, creatine can boost cellular water retention, is it suitable for the active wellness and cognitive support category targeting middle-aged and elderly populations?

A: Yes. In fact, cellular water retention is induced by creatine delivers positive physiological effects, for example: It boosts cellular volume, facilitates protein synthesis and improves muscle density, which is essential to prevent sarcopenia in the middle-aged and elderly populations. Because the brain is a high-energy-demand organ, if you supply creatine, your brain can gain energy support. In addition, by this way, it can improve symptoms of brain fog, short-term memory fatigue and chronic mental fatigue in high-stress individuals and seniors.
