Feracrylum acts through a three-way mechanism. It works via Haemostatic action, antimicrobial action, and hygroscopic action. In haemostatic action, it when come in contact with blood proteins (albumin), it forms biodegradable water insoluble synthetic complex, forming a physical barrier and prevents the capillary bleeding and blood oozing within 2-3 minutes.

Secondly, it causes the cell wall lysis of the microbes by acting as an antimicrobial agent. Lastly, due to its hygroscopic nature, it maintains the wound site environment and also the moisture content at the location. Thus aids faster healing and easy removal of dressing. Also promotes healthy tissue granulation.
