Kenya Chemical is one of the leading Formic acid Exporters, Manufacturers, Suppliers, and Producers in Nairobi, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi, Congo, South Africa, South Sudan, Zambia, Nigeria, Namibia, Ghana, Malawi Nairobi Kenya.
Formic acid, systematically named methanoic acid, is the simplest carboxylic acid, and has the chemical formula HCO2H. It is an important intermediate in chemical synthesis and occurs naturally, most notably in some ants. The word "formic" comes from the Latin word for ant, formica, referring to its early isolation by the distillation of ant bodies. Esters, salts, and the anion derived from formic acid are called formates. Industrially, formic acid is produced from methanol.
Formic acid is one of the basic organic chemical raw materials, widely used in pesticides, leather, dyestuff, medicine and rubber industry. Formic acid can be directly used for fabric processing, tanning, textile printing and dyeing, and storage ofgreen fodder. It can also be used as metal surface treatment agents, rubber auxiliaries and industrial solvents.

Formic acid uses
Formic acid is one of the basic organic chemical raw materials, which is widely used in pesticide,leather, dye, medicine, rubber and other industries. Formic acid can be directly used in fabric
processing, tanning, textile printing and dyeing and green feed storage. It can also be used as metal surface treatment agent, rubber additive and industrial solvent. In organic synthesis, it is
used to synthesize various formate esters, acridine dyes and formamide series pharmaceutical intermediates.
Formic acid Storage
Product storage requirements
The storage area of formic acid must be cool and ventilated, after all formic acid also has flammability.
In addition, formic acid can react with oxidants, so it is necessary to avoid the common transportation and storage of oxidizing agents and other alkali substances in the cars that store formic acid or transport formic acid.
Because there are both corrosive and flammable formate, to ensure that the packaging is complete without break, before shipping and packaging stacked neatly, avoid heap of the place, must hold, or on the road collision damaged the outer package of formic acid.
1)Pharmaceutical Medicine industry: caffei ne, analgin, aminopyrine, aminophylline, etc
2)Pesticide industry: Powder rust ning, triazole, triazole, triazole, etc.
3)Leather industry: leather tanning agents, ash removal agents and neutralizing agents.
4)Rubber industry: Natural rubber coagulant.
5)Texitle printing and dyeing industry: dyeing mordant, dyeing agent for fiber and paper, treating agent,plasticizer, food preservation and animal feed additive, etc.
6)Reductant: Used as a fixative in microscopic analysis.Make formates.
