Applications
-
Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industries
Formaldehyde is used in the synthesis of industrial chemicals, disinfectants, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
A fixed gas detector ensures that plant operators and workers are not exposed to dangerous levels of formaldehyde.Formaldehyde is a key ingredient in urea-formaldehyde, phenol-formaldehyde, and melamine-formaldehyde resins, which are used in wood products and coatings.
Fixed gas detectors help identify leaks in storage tanks, pipelines, and processing units, preventing workplace hazards.Many chemical manufacturing processes use formaldehyde as a precursor for other compounds.
-
Hospitals, Laboratories, and Medical Facilities
Formaldehyde solutions (formalin) are commonly used for tissue preservation in pathology and forensic laboratories.
Fixed gas detectors ensure that researchers, technicians, and medical staff are not exposed to toxic fumes.Formaldehyde is used in sterilizing medical instruments, surgical equipment, and hospital environments.
Continuous monitoring helps maintain air quality standards in sterilization rooms and prevents overexposure.Funeral homes and mortuaries use formalin-based embalming fluids. Fixed detectors ensure that airborne formaldehyde remains within safe exposure limits.
-
Semiconductor and Electronics Manufacturing
Formaldehyde is used in the etching and photolithography processes of semiconductor manufacturing.
Gas detectors help maintain a safe working environment by identifying leaks or excessive emissions in cleanrooms.Cleanrooms require strict air quality control, as even minor gas contamination can affect product quality and worker safety.
Fixed detectors monitor air quality and trigger alarms when formaldehyde levels exceed permissible exposure limits (PELs).
Characteristics of CH20
Formaldehyde (CH₂O) is a toxic, flammable, and volatile organic compound commonly used in manufacturing, medical, and chemical industries. Due to its hazardous nature, regulatory bodies have established strict exposure level limits to protect workers, the general public, and the environment.
Long-term or high-concentration exposure can cause respiratory issues, eye irritation, and long term diseases, leading to its classification as a Group 1 Carcinogen by the (IARC). This document outlines permissible exposure limits (PELs), short-term exposure limits (STELs), emergency thresholds, and safety considerations.
Short-Term (Acute) Exposure Effects
Low-Level Exposure (0.1 - 0.3 ppm)
✔ Mild eye, nose, and throat irritation.
✔ Burning sensation in mucous membranes.
Moderate Exposure (0.5 - 1 ppm)
✔ Worsening respiratory symptoms (coughing, wheezing).
✔ Increased asthma risk in sensitive individuals.
High Exposure (>2 ppm - 10 ppm)
✔ Severe throat and lung irritation.
✔ Skin burns from direct contact.
✔ Possible nausea, headaches, and dizziness.
