Formaldehyde | CAS Number: 50-00-0
Formaldehyde is a colorless gas with a strong odor, widely used in manufacturing building materials, resins, and household products like adhesives and disinfectants. It’s also used as a preservative in laboratories and mortuaries. Though versatile in industrial applications, formaldehyde is classified as a carcinogen, meaning long-term exposure can increase cancer risks. It’s important to handle formaldehyde carefully, especially in environments where ventilation is limited, to reduce health risks from inhalation or contact.
