Glyoxal
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Glyoxal is the simplest dialdehyde, primarily commercialized as a 40% Aqueous Solution. It is prized for its high reactivity and ability to cross-link natural and synthetic polymers.
This Industrial Grade chemical is a preferred formaldehyde substitute in wood adhesives and textile finishes. It maintains Consistent Purity levels required for sensitive chemical manufacturing and resin production.
In the energy sector, it serves as a highly efficient H2S Scavenger for oil and gas processing. Its molecular structure enables rapid reaction with sulfides to improve safety and equipment life.
Glyoxal
APPLICATIONS
- Textile Finishing: Employed as a cross-linking agent to provide wrinkle-free properties to cotton fabrics.
- Oil & Gas Processing: Acts as a primary H2S scavenger to remove hydrogen sulfide from crude oil streams.
- Paper Manufacturing: Used to enhance the wet strength and coating performance of high-quality paper products.
