Formaldehyde Solution (CH₂O) – Industrial & Laboratory Grade | Wholesale Supplier

Formaldehyde is an organic compound with the formula CH₂O, widely used in the chemical, textile, automotive, agriculture, and medical sectors. In its most commercially viable form, it’s supplied as a formalin solution (typically 37% by weight in water) stabilized with methanol to prevent polymerization.

At Cavin Resource, we supply high-quality formaldehyde solution in bulk for industrial and laboratory applications. Our products are manufactured under strict quality standards to ensure purity, stability, and safe handling. Whether you require formaldehyde for adhesive production, disinfection, or chemical synthesis, we can meet your large-scale sourcing needs with global logistics support.

⚙️ Production Method

Oxidation of Methanol (Formox Process)

1. Methanol is vaporized and mixed with air

2. Catalytic oxidation occurs using silver or metal oxide catalysts

3. Resulting formaldehyde is absorbed in water to form aqueous solution (formalin)

4. Stabilized with methanol for safe transport and storage
