Formic acid is widely used and consumed in medicine, chemical industry, pesticide, rubber chemistry, leather processing, textile printing and dyeing, silage and grain mildew prevention since 1990. Therefore, the potential market for formic acid is still very large. So today, CD will tell you about the nature and use of formic acid.

Formic acid is a colorless, sulfur dioxide-like liquid. Formic acid is the most acidic acid in monocarboxylic acid. It has strong corrosiveness and irritation. Splashing on the skin can cause burns. Formic acid is regarded as a high hazard in the classification of toxicity hazards of chemical media. Therefore, in the process of production and transportation, we must strictly follow the relevant provisions of dangerous goods.

Formic acid can dissolve with water in any proportion and form azeotropic mixture. Formic acid can dissolve nylon, polycarbonate and other macromolecule compounds, but insoluble polyvinyl chloride. Formic acid is one of the basic organic raw materials in chemical reactions. Formic acid can participate in various kinds of reactions, such as decomposition, addition, cyclization, acylation and esterification.

It is widely used in pesticides, leather, silk, medicine and rubber industries. Formic acid is commonly used as raw material in the production of analgin, aminopyrine, caffeine, vitamin B1, camphor and other organic compounds. Formic acid has good volatilization performance and is an excellent dyeing aid.

The shrinkage resistance and wrinkle resistance of melamine resin fabrics are very good after washing with formic acid solution. Formic acid is also used in the collection of green fodder and cereals to prevent mould growth. Now Finland has used formic acid in papermaking industry to solve environmental pollution caused by alkaline wastewater. Formic acid can also be used for cleaning steel plates.

At present, the use of formic acid to develop fresh-keeping agent for green fodder. With the conversion of grazing to captivity, back-stored feed has been widely used. It is estimated that this project will require 20,000 tons to 30,000 tons of formic acid per year. With the high attention paid to environmental protection in our country, the application of formic acid in printing, dyeing and leather industry will be widely recognized for its advantages of high processing quality and low environmental pollution.

The formic acid produced by CD has the patent of invention, and has the production license of feed grade formic acid. The quality of 85%-99.5% formic acid produced is stable, the impurities are small, and the content of heavy metals is low.
