description Product Description
Formic acid solution is widely used in various industries due to its versatile properties. In agriculture, it serves as a preservative and antibacterial agent in silage to improve the fermentation process and prevent spoilage. It is also employed in the textile and leather industries as a dyeing and finishing agent, helping to fix colors and treat materials. Additionally, formic acid solution is utilized in the production of rubber and pharmaceuticals as a coagulant and intermediate in chemical synthesis. Its ability to act as a reducing agent makes it valuable in cleaning and descaling applications, particularly for removing rust and mineral deposits. In beekeeping, it is used as a miticide to control varroa mites, ensuring the health of bee colonies.
