Core Applications

1. Formaldehyde Scavenger (Core Application)

   
   

   It is a highly efficient formaldehyde trapping agent, specially designed to eliminate residual free formaldehyde in urea-formaldehyde resin, melamine-formaldehyde resin and other amino resin systems. Widely used in textile anti-wrinkle finishing, leather processing, building materials and indoor air purification, effectively reducing formaldehyde emissions and complying with environmental protection standards.
   
   
2. Pharmaceutical Intermediate

   
   

   High-purity ethylene urea serves as a key raw material for synthesizing azlocillin, mezlocillin and other third-generation penicillin antibiotics. It is also applied in the research and production of anti-schistosomiasis drugs, occupying an important position in the pharmaceutical fine chemical chain.
   
   
3. Resins, Coatings & Adhesives

   
   

   Used as a chemical building block to produce casting resins, plasticizers, spray paints and various adhesives. It improves the film-forming performance and weather resistance of coatings, and enhances the bonding strength of adhesive products.
   
   
4. Agricultural Chemicals
   
   
   Applied to manufacture plant growth regulators, herbicides, fungicides and pesticides. It helps regulate crop growth and protect crops from pests, supporting modern agricultural production.
