Polyformaldehyde is a compound formed by the polymerization of formaldehyde, and its uses cover multiple fields:
Industrial field
Paraformaldehyde is widely used in the production of polyoxymethylene resin (POM), which has excellent wear resistance and mechanical properties and is suitable for manufacturing precision mechanical parts (such as gears and bearings).
In the coating and adhesive industries, its cross-linking properties can improve the water resistance and hardness of the product, and is used in wood processing, construction and electronics industries.
1. Agricultural field
Paraformaldehyde is used to synthesize herbicides (such as glyphosate and acetochlor) and insecticides (such as tetramethrin and phorate), and is also used as a soil disinfectant in the production of pesticides.
2. Environmental protection field
Paraformaldehyde is used for wastewater treatment and air purification


3. Synthetic materials
Paraformaldehyde can be used to prepare phenolic resins, urea-formaldehyde resins, etc., which are used in building materials, adhesives for electronic components, and paper enhancers.
As an important organic chemical raw material, paraformaldehyde is mainly used in synthetic resins, coatings, adhesives, and medicines. In industry, paraformaldehyde has become an important raw material for the preparation of polyoxymethylene plastics (POM) due to its high purity and stable chemical properties.
