DEDICATED TO PROVIDE THE FINEST OF PRODUCTS

Description:

Formic Acid is a salt based product (Sodium Formate Base) which is the – a a most recommended route of manufacturing Formic Acid as compared to Ester based. Owing to its nature, Tufail’s Formic Acid is stronger and hence much active in bath exhaustion.

Uses:

The principal use of formic acid is as a preservative and antibacterial agent in livestock feed. When sprayed on fresh hay or other silage, it 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 salmonella bacteria. Other uses:

It is used to process organic latex (sap) into raw rubber.
Beekeepers use formic acid as a miticide against the Varroa mite.
It is of minor importance in the textile industry and for the tanning of leather.
Some formate esters are artificial flavorings or perfumes.
It is the active ingredient in some brands of household limescale remover.

In synthetic organic chemistry, formic acid is often used as a source of hydride ion. The Eschweiler-Clarke reaction and the Leuckart-Wallach reaction are examples of this application. It is also used as a source of hydrogen in transfer hydrogenation.

In the laboratory formic acid is also used as source for carbon monoxide, which is set free by the addition of sulfuric acid. Formic acid is also a source for a formyl group for example in the formylation of metylaniline to N-methylformanilide in toluene.

Safety:

The principal danger from formic acid is from skin or eye contact with liquid formic acid or with the concentrated vapors. Any of these exposure routes can cause severe chemical burns, and eye exposure can result in permanent eye damage. Inhaled vapors may similarly cause irritation or burns in the respiratory tract. Since carbon monoxide may be also be present in formic acid vapors, care should be taken wherever large quantities of formic acid fumes are present. The US OSHA Permissible Exposure Level ( PEL) of formic acid vapor in the work environment is 5 parts per million parts of air (ppm).
