Description
nounChemistry. a white, crystalline polymer of formaldehyde, (HCOH)n, from which it is obtained by evaporation of the aqueous solution: used chiefly as an antiseptic.
Preparation
To make 200 mL of PFA, add 100 mL of H2O to a 500-mL glass bottle (e.g., Pyrex) containing a stir bar. Heat to 60°C on a magnetic heating plate (keep this temperature during the whole preparation). Add 8 g of PFA powder, then gradually add 100 mL of 0.2 M phosphate buffer and stir until most of the PFA is dissolved.
Chemical Properties
Paraformaldehyde exhibits chemical properties related to its role as a polymerization agent, releasing formaldehyde upon heating, and is used as a disinfectant and fixative.
Definition
Paraformaldehyde is a polymeric form of formaldehyde, composed of multiple repeating units of formaldehyde molecules, often used as a solid source of formaldehyde in various applications.
