1. Application :

Products generated from formaldehyde include urea formaldehyde resin, melamine resin, phenol formaldehyde resin, polyoxymethylene plastics, 1,4-butanediol, and methylene diphenyl diisocyanate. The textile industry uses formaldehyde-based resins as finishers to make fabrics crease-resistant.

When treated with phenol, urea, or melamine, formaldehyde produces, respectively, hard thermoset phenol formaldehyde resin, urea formaldehyde resin, and melamine resin.  These polymers are common permanent adhesives used in plywood and carpeting.  It is used as the wet-strength resin added to sanitary paper products such as facial tissue, table napkins, and roll towels.  They are also foamed to make insulation, or cast into moulded products.

Formaldehyde is also a precursor to polyfunctional alcohols such as pentaerythritol, which is used to make paints and explosives.

An aqueous solution of formaldehyde can be useful as a disinfectant and biocide.

Formaldehyde is used in the manufacture of animal feeds.

Formaldehyde preserves or fixes tissue or cells. It is used as Tissue fixative and embalming agent.

Formaldehyde is used in Drug testing and Photography.
