Paraformaldehyde 96%

CAS Number:30525‑89‑4

Purity:≥ 96% formaldehyde equivalents, ≤ 4 % ash/methanol/formic acid

Product Introduction

High-purity paraformaldehyde, offered as white beads, powder, or prills. Ideal for sensitive biological applications, resin formulations, and analytical work where low impurity levels are critical.

Physical & Chemical Properties

Property Value
Appearance White powder or beads
Formaldehyde Content ≥ 96% (e.g., 96.3%)
Ash ≤ 0.02–0.05%
Methanol ≤ 1%
Formic Acid ≤ 0.03–0.001%
pH (10 % suspension) ~4.0–7.0
Melting Point 120–170 °C (decomposes)
Flash Point ~71 °C

Applications

  • High-grade fixative for cell/tissue culture (low impurity background)
  • Analytical or reagent grade for research requiring ≥95% formaldehyde content
  • Precision resin chemistry :demanding rigorous purity standards

Safety & Handling

  • Same as above—but ensure low impurity grade is kept dry and free from contamination.
