Formaldehyde Scavenger for Gas Removal
Description
Formaldehyde Scavenger is a specialized chemical additive designed to effectively capture and neutralize formaldehyde gas from industrial emissions and chemical processes. By reacting with free formaldehyde, it reduces toxic gas release, odor levels, and health hazards, ensuring a safer workplace and compliance with environmental regulations.
It is commonly used in resins, coatings, adhesives, and textile processes where formaldehyde may be generated during curing or production. The scavenger improves product safety, air quality, and end-user acceptability, aligning with modern eco-friendly and low-VOC standards.
