Overview
FormaldehydeThis post is part of our special coverage syria protests 2011ChemicalHco, mass 30. 03, also known as antaldehyde, naturally present organic compounds。
Non-colored irritating gases have irritating effects on human eyes, nose, etc. A 40% volume formaldehyde water solution is called 100% formalin. Gas relative density 1. 067 (air = 1) and liquid density 0. 815 g/cm3-20°c. It is mainly used in the production of industrial resins, such as plaques and coatings. The annual production of formaldehyde in 1996 was about 8. 7 million tons。
The 2011 national toxicology programme of the united states describes formaldehyde as a “known human carcinogen”。

10. Explosive limit (v/v): 7% ~73% of air
11. Logarithmic (logp) of the partition coefficient for oil and water ( kol/water): 0. 35
12. Critical temperature (oc): 137. 2 ~ 141. 2
Critical pressure (mpa): 6. 784 ~ 6. 637
14. Sticky (mpa. S,-20oc): 0. 242
15. Lower blast limit (%, v/v): 7. 0
16. Exploding cap (%, v/v): 73
17. Solvability: soluble in water and ether. Aqueous solution concentrations can be up to 55%. It is free to mix with water, ethanol and acetone. Gradual oxidation of aic acid in air is a strong reduction agent. It forms an explosive mixture of vapour and air, with burning explosions caused by open fire and high heat. In general commodities, 10-12 per cent of methanol is added as a inhibitor, or there is polymerization。

Nature and stability
1. Formaldehyde is the simplest form of formaldehyde, usually classified as saturated monalde, but it is equivalent to dual formaldehyde。
Chemical properties: pure formaldehyde has a strong reduction effect, especially in alkali solutions. Formaldehyde itself can slowly condensate and is particularly vulnerable to polymerization。
2. Toxic. Inhalation of formaldehyde vapour can cause nausea, nasalitis, bronchitis and compostitis。
3. Exists in tobacco leaves, mainstream gases, side-stream gases。
4. Formaldehyde is highly polymeric and under different conditions。
5. Composed formaldehyde into polymers for storage and transport。
Storage methods
1. Formaldehyde is a gaseous state at constant temperatures, usually in the form of aqueous solutions。
2. 200 l (53usgal) drums of preservative materials for transport with a net weight of 200 ~210 kg, vehicles or troughs。
Storage temperature 4°c
Methanol dehydrogenization use of methanol oxide by synthesis method
Formaldehyde is an important organic material and is used mainly in the plastic industry (e. G. Phenol resins, platinum plastics - electrode), synthetic fibres (e. G. Synthetic vinicium - polyethylene alcohol indentation formaldehyde), leather industry, medicine, dyes, etc。
Formaldehyde may also be made of synthetic resins, surfactants, plastics, rubber, leather, paper, dyes, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, photographic films, etc。
3. Timber industry, textile industry, preservative solution, food industry, analytical reagents such as ammonium salt determination。
4. Formaldehyde is the first generation preservative. It has a good effect on the extinction of fungus, coli, fungus, yeast and other gland bacteria。
To be used as a reduction agent for chemical copper plating, for the analysis of electroplating solutions and for the formulation of zinc plating additives, etc。
