Product Description
Appearance:
Formic acid is a colorless liquid having a highly pungent, penetrating odor at room temperature. It is miscible with water and most polar organic solvents, and is somewhat soluble in hydrocarbons. In hydrocarbons and in the vapor phase, it consists of hydrogen-bonded dimers rather than individual molecules.
Colourless combutibles liquid with seepage stimulate stimul Soluble in water and alcohol.
Formic acid (also called methanoic acid) is the simplest carboxylic acid. Its chemical formula is HCOOH or HCO2H. It is an important intermediate in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally, most notably in ant venom.

Uses:
Formic Acid is widely used in diversified lines all over the world.
In medical industry it is used in making Amidopyrin, Vitamin B and many other medicines.
In chemical industry, Formic Acid is used in producing Methanamide , Diethyl Formamide, rubber age resister, dying and so on .It is also an important material for Pesticide, such as Triazone.
In other ways, Formic Acid is considerable used in green fodder storage.
A major use of formic acid is as a preservative and antibacterial agent in livestock feed.
In Europe, it is applied on silage (including fresh hay) to promote the fermentation of lactic acid and to suppress the formation of butyric acid; it also allows fermentation to occur quickly, and at a lower temperature, reducing the loss of nutritional value.
Formic acid arrests certain decay processes and causes the feed to retain its nutritive value longer, and so it is widely used to preserve winter feed for cattle.
In the poultry industry, it is sometimes added to feed to kill E. coli bacteria.
We established in 2004, is located in jinzhou city, hebei province. We joinville is one of the largest chemical industry base of hebei, Our annual sales, can achieve 200 million yuan.
