PARAFORMALDEHYDE 96% (For Synthesis)

Paraformaldehyde 96% (For Synthesis) is polymerized formaldehyde, a solid that is a white crystal and is commonly used as a source of formaldehyde in chemical reactions. Upon heating or dissolving in appropriate conditions, it slowly depolymerizes to release formaldehyde, which can further react in cross-linking, fixation or polymerization reactions. Because of this controlled release mechanism, it works effectively as a disinfectant and as a hardening and waterproofing agent in many chemical processes in which formaldehyde-based reactions are required.

Paraformaldehyde 96% (For Synthesis) is a polymerized form of formaldehyde supplied as a white crystalline powder for synthesis and controlled chemical processing.
