Formic Acid Chemical Formula:HCOOH

Formic Acid consists of a carboxyl functional group (-COOH) attached to hydrogen, making it the simplest organic carboxylic acid. Its strong acidity and reducing properties make it valuable in chemical manufacturing and industrial processing.

Formic Acid is a colorless liquid organic acid with a strong pungent odor and excellent chemical reactivity. It is completely soluble in water, ethanol, and many organic solvents, making it widely used as: A pH regulator, A reducing agent, A chemical intermediate,A preservative in agriculture and feed

Due to its biodegradable nature and efficient acidity, formic acid is often preferred over stronger mineral acids in many industrial processes. Our high-purity industrial grade Formic Acid is manufactured under strict quality control to ensure stable concentration, consistent chemical performance, and reliable industrial applications.

As a professional Formic Acid supplier and exporter, we provide multiple concentration grades including 85%, 90%, 94%, and 99% Formic Acid, along with flexible packaging solutions suitable for large-scale industrial production and international bulk transportation. Key Features of Industrial Formic Acid:

High Chemical Reactivity
Formic Acid is a strong organic acid with excellent reducing properties, making it effective for pH control, chemical reactions, and industrial processing.
Consistent Industrial Quality:
Our formic acid is produced under strict manufacturing and quality control systems, ensuring:Stable concentration, Reliable chemical performance, Consistent industrial-grade purity
Excellent Solubility
