Paraformaldehyde is a white, free-flowing polymerized form of formaldehyde commonly used as a disinfectant, fixative, and intermediate in organic synthesis. It serves as a source of formaldehyde gas upon depolymerization and is widely utilized in the production of resins (such as urea-formaldehyde and phenol-formaldehyde), agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and slow-release fertilizers.
