colorless transparent liquid. It can be freely miscible with water, ethanol and acetone. In the air can be gradually oxidized to formic acid, is a strong reducing agent. Its vapor and air to form an explosive mixture, fire, high heat caused by combustion explosion. In general commercial products, 10% to 12% of methanol is added as an inhibitor, otherwise polymerization will occur.
methanol vapor at 300 ° C., the introduction of copper or silver catalyst, methanol dehydrogenation obtained. Formaldehyde gas absorption water content of 36% ~ 40%, that is, formaldehyde solution. The commercially available formaldehyde solution is distilled to remove impurities and supplemented with methanol as the reagent formaldehyde solution.
used as a fixative for various preparations in microscopic analysis as a reagent for the determination of ammonium salts and amino acids. Also used as a germicidal disinfectant, biological specimens of dip, reducing agent. It is also an important organic raw material.
rat oral LD50: 800mg/kg; Rabbit percutaneous LD50: 270mg/kg. It is strongly irritating to mucous membranes, upper respiratory tract, eyes and skin. Protection should be provided when they may come into contact with their vapors. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat source. Protection from direct sunlight. Keep the container sealed. Should be stored separately from the oxidant, acid, alkali.
acidity take 5.0 of this product, add 5ml of water and 2 drops of phenolphthalein indicator solution, and use sodium hydroxide titration solution (0.lmol/L) titration to the solution is pink, consumption of sodium hydroxide titration solution (0.lmol/L) not over 1.0.
take about 1.5 of this product, precision weighing, set the Erlenmeyer flask, Add 10ml of water, 25ml of hydrogen peroxide test solution and 2 drops of bromothymol blue indicator solution, Dropwise add sodium hydroxide titration solution (lmol/L) add 25ml sodium hydroxide titration solution (1 mol/L) to the solution until the solution is blue. Set a glass funnel at the mouth of the bottle and heat it on a water bath for 15 minutes, the funnel was washed with water, 2 drops of bromothymol blue indicator solution were added, the solution was titrated with hydrochloric acid titration solution (1 mol/L) to yellow color, and the titration result was corrected by blank test. Each 1 ml of sodium hydroxide titration solution (1 mol/L) corresponds to 30.03mg of ch20.
Disinfection antiseptic.
