Global Paraformaldehyde Market Highlights

Global Paraformaldehyde Market is accounted to register a CAGR of 4.50% during the forecast period and is estimated to reach USD 669.63 Billion by 2032.

Paraformaldehyde is a solid polymeric form of formaldehyde, a colorless and pungent gas, that is commonly used in scientific and industrial settings as a fixative and preservative. It is produced through the polymerization of formaldehyde in water and exists as a white, crystalline powder or as small white beads. Due to its ability to crosslink proteins and nucleic acids, paraformaldehyde is widely employed in biological research as a fixative for preserving cellular structures and preventing degradation of biomolecules. It is especially useful for preserving tissues and cells for microscopy and immunohistochemistry studies. Additionally, paraformaldehyde finds application in various chemical processes, such as resin production and surface coatings, and serves as an essential component in embalming fluids for preserving human and animal specimens. However, it should be handled with caution due to its toxicity and potential to release formaldehyde gas upon heating, necessitating appropriate safety measures during its use.
