Common and Practical Uses of Formaldehyde

Most of us remember hearing about formaldehyde in science class and know scientists use it for things like preserving frogs in jars. However, formaldehyde has several more common and practical uses.

But first, what is formaldehyde? Formaldehyde is a strong-smelling organic compound that exists as a colorless gas at room temperature; it also has a grand history in the field of chemistry. This gas blends well with water to create a mixture called formalin—when we see those frogs in jars, it's generally formalin since the compound is in liquid form. Whether industries use formalin or formaldehyde, here are some of the most frequent uses you may encounter in your daily life.

Uses in Building Materials

Companies frequently use formaldehyde in building materials such as particleboard or resins. Using formaldehyde in wood allows for greater sustainability and helps fill in gaps when trying to utilize wood that would otherwise get thrown away. Experts ensure that the amount of the chemical used in wood products doesn't present any risk to people.

Uses in Food

Formaldehyde may not seem like the type of product we want in our food, but chemists and nutritionists have found ways to use this organic compound to our advantage. In a similar principle to how a jar of formalin preserves specimens, formaldehyde works to extend the shelf life of certain foods, keeping them safe and edible for greater periods of time. Experts frequently use the gas as a method of preservation for foods like fruits, fish, and vegetables.

Uses in Cleaning Products

One of the most common and practical uses of formaldehyde is in our everyday cleaning products. It's easy to imagine the chemical in certain detergents, but you can also find it in paper towels and, surprisingly, many air fresheners. You wouldn't expect a gas known for its pungent and unpleasant aroma to work as an air freshener, but it works great as an ingredient for keeping the air around us clean and fragrant.

Haiti, Lebanon, Ukraine & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (28 March 2024)
Play Video: Haiti, Lebanon, Ukraine & other topics - Daily Press Briefing (28 March 2024)


Noon Briefing by Stéphane Dujarric, Spokesperson for the Secretary-General. Highlights: -Haiti -Occupied Palestinian territory -Prevention of genocide -Lebanon -Ukraine -Malawi -South Sudan -Resident coordinator – Belarus HAITI The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs says that our response continues even as the situation on the ground remains tense and volatile. Schools and students in Port-au-Prince are paying a heavy price because of the ongoing violence. UNICEF condemned an arson attack on a school that took place on 25 March, depriving over 1,000 children of their right to education. Across the country, UNICEF estimates that more than 1,000 schools have closed or suspended classes due to recent violence and insecurity. As we’ve mentioned before, the health sector has also been severely impacted, with at least half of all health facilities in the Port-au-Prince metropolitan area either closed or having their operations severely disrupted. The World Food Programme continues its daily hot meal programme for displaced people in Port-au-Prince. Yesterday, our colleagues at WFP reached the largest number of people in a single day this month. They distributed 22,000 meals. Thanks to our local partners, the World Food Programme was also able to access 10 new sites for displaced people. Since early March, WFP and its partners have reached more than 54,000 displaced people with more than 263,000 hot meals in 38 different sites. Also, since early March, more than two million liters of drinking water have been distributed by our partners, reaching some 60,000 displaced people in some 29 sites. For its part, UNICEF and its partners have conducted more than 700 medical consultations in displacement sites over the last two weeks. Between 18-25 March, UNICEF provided psychosocial support to more than 600 children at displacement sites. Recent events are curtailing people’s access to basic social services. The violence is also hampering aid operations, including access to the port where there are humanitarian supplies which remain at risk of being looted. As we have said many times, we need safe and unhindered access to those in need, as well as urgent and flexible funding. The Humanitarian Response Plan for Haiti, which calls for $674 million, is currently only 6.6 per cent funded, which means that we have only $45 million in the till. And also I think Maggie asked a question yesterday about funding. WFP has been able to leverage the support of donors to continue hot-meals distributions in the short term. However, without ongoing support, WFP’s emergency assistance is under threat for the next few months. For its emergency activities, including hot-meals distributions, WFP requires $61 million over the next six months. The overall funding gap is about $103 million – for the next six months. OCCUPIED PALESTINIAN TERRITORY Turning to the situation in the Occupied Palestinian Territory and in Gaza, the Office for the Coordination for Humanitarian Affairs stresses that, as more than 1.1 million people in Gaza face extreme levels of food insecurity, there is no alternative to the large-scale delivery of aid by land. But despite these urgent and overwhelming needs, hostilities and access impediments continue to hamper our efforts to get life-saving assistance to civilians in Gaza at the scale that we need to save lives. Time and again, we have said that aid organizations need additional entry points and supply routes into Gaza – and safe and sustained access throughout the Gaza strip– to reach everyone who need to be reached. This includes access to the north. Our humanitarian colleagues on the ground tell us that between 16 and 22 March, nine humanitarian aid missions to northern Gaza were facilitated by the Israeli authorities, but five were denied. OCHA reports that 15 humanitarian partners reached a daily average of 550,000 people in Gaza with food assistance last week, that’s between 18 and 24, but just three per cent of these supplies went to northern Gaza. More than half was distributed in Rafah Governorate, with the rest going to other areas, including Deir al Balah. And just a quick correction to something I said yesterday about the World Food Programme reaching 74,000 people in northern Gaza with food assistance -- that was with four convoys during the month of March versus 11 since the start of the year.

Bintou Keita, Head of the United Nations Organization Stabilization Mission in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (MONUSCO) said, “In eastern DRC, we are witnessing an intensification of the fighting and the deteriorating security and humanitarian situation.” Addressing the press today (27 Mar) Keita, said, “M 23 continues to make significant advances and expansion of its territory to unprecedented levels. This has culminated in an even more disastrous humanitarian situation with internal displacement reaching unprecedented numbers.” She also said, “We must collectively pay more attention to the deepening humanitarian crisis stemming from the M 23 escalation in North Kivu and prolonged arm violence in Ituri and South Kivu.” She continued, “More than 71 million people are internally displaced in eastern DRC - an increase of 800,000 since my last briefing some three months ago - 23.4 million people are food insecure, which means that 1 in 4 Congolese faces hunger and malnutrition making the Democratic Republic of Congo the country most affected by food insecurity.” She stated, “This humanitarian catastrophe requires a strong response from the international community. The 2024 humanitarian response plan remains underfunded.” She reiterated, “Military engagement has to go hand in hand with continued investment by the Congolese authorities in regional, national and local peace processes. This must be complemented by a profound reform of the security sector and the operationalization of the programs of disarmament, community reinsertion and stabilization.”

Play Video: Hamas Calls for End to ‘Deadly’ Aid Airdrops After Drowning Disaster


This footage apparently shows an incident on Monday where a dozen people drowned attempting to reach aid in Gaza. The disaster occurred after hundreds battled strong currents to reach crates of aid off the coast. Hamas has now called for an end to airdropping aid over Gaza. Many aid airdrops are deliberately dropped over the coast. Coastal drops may have been seen as safer, after five were crushed to death by falling aid packages earlier this month. Dropping aid over densely populated areas is inherently dangerous. And some human rights groups have criticised airdrops as an inefficient and degrading way of getting aid into Gaza. There is mounting pressure for Israel to allow more aid to flow into Gaza by land. Israel has been accused of restricting access to Gaza, even in the face of widespread starvation in the territory. With some in the UN even accusing Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war. But Israel claims there is ‘no limit’ to the amount of aid it is willing to let through by land. It blames aid agencies for not distributing the aid efficiently, and Hamas for hoarding aid for its fighters and commanders. This has been categorically denied by aid agencies, who say their staff routinely risk their lives to get aid to Gaza’s civilian population. #gaza #israel #palestine Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/ODNsubs TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@ondemandnews Twitter: https://twitter.com/ODN Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ODN/ If you wish to purchase any of our clips for commercial use, please visit: http://www.itnproductions.co.uk/news/
