What is PFA (paraformaldehyde powder) used for?

Resins Industry:
PFA Paraformaldehyde is mainly used to provide formaldehyde groups when making many thermosetting resins. They're used as molding powders. In the wood industry, they act as glues for chipboard, plywood, and furniture. It works as bonding resins for brakes, abrasives, and foundry dyes. Besides, PFA is used as finishing resins for paper and textiles, driers and glossing agents for paints, and insulating varnishes for electrical parts.

 

Disinfectant:
When paraformaldehyde CAS NO 30525-89-4 is heated, it breaks down and produces formaldehyde gas. This gas reacts with moisture in the air. In the poultry industry, it's used as a disinfectant in hatcheries. In the cattle and sheep industry, it sanitizes bedding in sheds.

 

Agriculture and Pesticides:
Most paraformaldehyde used in the agrochemicals industry goes into making herbicides.

 

Reagent for Organic Reactions:
Researchers say making this solution fresh from paraformaldehyde is better than using stored formalin. That's because there's more methylene glycol and no methanol in the fresh solution.
