Applications of Paraformaldehyde

Paraformaldehyde has a wide range of applications, mainly in chemical industry, pesticides, resins, pharmaceuticals and disinfection. The largest consumption field is herbicide production, especially glyphosate.

🌾 Pesticide Industry

  • Herbicides: Paraformaldehyde is a key raw material for glyphosate and is also used to synthesize acetochlor, butachlor, and other herbicides.
  • Other pesticides: Used to produce insecticides and fungicides.

🧪 Resin & Chemical Synthesis

  • Synthetic Resins: Used to manufacture urea-formaldehyde resin, phenolic resin, melamine resin, ion exchange resin, etc.
  • Organic Synthesis: Serves as a formaldehyde source for the Prins reaction and various hydroxymethylation reactions, producing ethylene glycol, trimethylolpropane, and N-methylolacrylamide.
  • Adhesives: Raw material for adhesive manufacturing.
