Formaldehyde is a chemical widely used to manufacture building materials and various household products. Wood based panels can emit small amounts of formaldehyde to the air and each panel type has a product standard governing the testing and certification of that product for formaldehyde emissions. Anyone involved in the manufacture of these products could be exposed to formaldehyde in ...

Formaldehyde is used for disinfections of industrially manufactured products. However, it is detrimental to health and its potential oncogenicity led to the current utilization of a formaldehyde donor for long-term preservation. Such donors are in hydrolytic equilibrium with formaldehyde producing free formaldehyde on exposure to moisture. This method is used to quantify the free formaldehyde ...
As product safety regulations for industry are becoming stricter, more testing at lower levels is required for toxic elements or hazardous organic chemicals such as formaldehyde in children’s toys/clothing. Formaldehyde resins are used in fabrics to bind pigments to the cloth, as a fire retardant and to provide stiffness. In cotton and cottonblend fabrics they are used to enhance wrinkle ...
