Formaldehyde Used in the Chemical Manufacturing
Formaldehyde is a key industrial chemical. Its main use is in resin synthesis to produce phenolic, urea-formaldehyde, and melamine resins.


Formaldehyde Used in the Plastic Industry
Formaldehyde is used as a raw material to produce polyoxymethylene (POM), a high-performance engineering plastic used in automotive parts and electrical components.
Formaldehyde Used in the Energy Industry
Formaldehyde is a raw material for synthesizing high-octane oxymethylene ether fuel blending components, not directly used as fuel additive.


Formaldehyde Used in the Pharmaceutical Industry
Biomedical preservation: Used as storage solution for bioprosthetic heart valves and animal tissue implants, not as raw material for implant manufacturing.
Formaldehyde Used in the Household Use
Formaldehyde may be employed as a cleansing agent, exhibiting bactericidal, deodorizing, and detersive properties.


Formaldehyde Used in the Textile Industry
● Textile auxiliaries: Added to fabrics to improve wrinkle resistance, shrink resistance, and dyeing stability, commonly used in pure cotton textiles.
● Synthetic fibers: Used in the production of vinylon fibers, commonly found in low-grade apparel.
