01 /What is caffeine anhydrous?

Caffeine anhydrous is the water-free (anhydrous) form of caffeine — a white, odourless crystalline powder with a bitter taste and CAS number 58-08-2. “Anhydrous” distinguishes it from caffeine hydrate, which carries roughly 8.5% water; the anhydrous form is more concentrated and the standard choice where consistent dosing and long shelf stability matter.

Chemically it is 1,3,7-trimethylxanthine, molecular formula C8H10N4O2 and molecular weight 194.19 g/mol. It is the form referenced by the USP, BP and EP monographs used to qualify pharmaceutical and nutraceutical material.

02 /Specifications & grades

Pharmacopoeia-grade caffeine anhydrous is supplied to USP, BP and EP specification, with assay typically ≥ 98.5% on the dried basis. Each lot is verified for identity, assay and purity (loss on drying, residue on ignition, related substances) before release.

The right grade depends on the application — pharmaceutical formulation, nutraceutical or food and beverage. Our technical team confirms the appropriate monograph and specification for your process.

03 /Applications

Pharmaceutical: a central-nervous-system stimulant and a common component of analgesic combination products, where it can enhance the effect of other actives.

Nutraceutical & sports nutrition: the active in pre-workout, energy and weight-management supplements, valued for precise, repeatable dosing.

Food & beverage: the functional ingredient in energy drinks and related products, supplied to food-appropriate specification.

Research & analysis: a reference material and reagent across analytical and life-science work.

04 /Quality, documentation & storage

Every shipment carries a Certificate of Analysis covering assay, identity and purity, with pharmacopoeia conformance where applicable. Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and technical data sheets are available on request before you order.

Store caffeine anhydrous in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and incompatible materials, in line with the Safety Data Sheet. Reseal between dispensings to preserve the low moisture that defines the anhydrous grade.

·Frequently asked questions

What is the CAS number of caffeine anhydrous?

+

Caffeine anhydrous has CAS number 58-08-2, molecular formula C8H10N4O2 and a molecular weight of 194.19 g/mol.

What is the difference between caffeine anhydrous and caffeine?

+

“Caffeine anhydrous” is the water-free form (about 0.5% moisture), while caffeine hydrate carries roughly 8.5% water. The anhydrous form is more concentrated and gives more consistent dosing and shelf life, which is why it is the standard for pharmaceutical and nutraceutical use.

What grades of caffeine anhydrous does Tech Serve Solutions supply?

+

Tech Serve Solutions supplies caffeine anhydrous to USP, BP and EP pharmacopoeia specification, plus reagent grade for analytical use. Custom specifications are available on request.

What is the assay and purity of pharmacopoeia-grade caffeine anhydrous?

+

USP-grade caffeine anhydrous assays at not less than 98.5% on the dried basis, with controlled limits on loss on drying, residue on ignition and related substances. The exact figures for each lot appear on its Certificate of Analysis.

Is caffeine anhydrous suitable for pharmaceutical use?

+

Yes. Supplied to USP, BP or EP grade with full documentation, caffeine anhydrous is suitable for pharmaceutical formulation, including analgesic combination products and CNS-stimulant applications.

How should caffeine anhydrous be stored?

+

Store in a tightly closed container in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and incompatible materials, per the Safety Data Sheet. Resealing between uses preserves the low moisture content of the anhydrous grade.
