Research Summary
Formaldehyde is a colorless, strong-smelling gas with the chemical formula CH2O. It is a simple organic compound composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Formaldehyde occurs naturally in the environment, but it is also produced synthetically for various industrial applications. Commonly used in the production of resins, plastics, and textiles, formaldehyde is a key component in the manufacturing of adhesives, building materials, and household products. It is known for its preservative properties, making it a common ingredient in embalming fluids. However, prolonged exposure to formaldehyde vapors can be harmful, irritating the eyes, nose, and throat, and in higher concentrations, it may cause respiratory issues. Due to its potential health effects, efforts are made to regulate formaldehyde emissions, especially in indoor environments, and alternative products and processes are explored to minimize its use in certain applications.
