Sodium formate is a sodium salt that is widely associated with chemical, cosmetics, healthcare, resins, and plastic industries. It is primarily used in the production of different chemical compounds. It serves as an intermediate in synthesizing chemicals such as formic acid, oxalic acid, and more.

It can be used as a preservative with a diuretic effect and is used in formulations of cosmetics and skincare products. Similarly, it can be used in the formulation of certain medicines used as drugs in the pharmaceutical industry. The compound is also used in the preparation of printing and dyeing materials. Additionally, it is utilized in manufacturing paints, plastics, explosives, lubricants, and more. It is considered as a chemical additive in preparing adhesives, as well.

The application of sodium formate as a sodium salt for chemical synthesis, preservation, and production of resins and plastic products is one of the strong factors that drive its demand in the market. The market for sodium formate is strengthened by the rise in its demand for the production of products such as lubricants, coatings, paints, plastic, and more.

Its usage in the production and formulation of skincare products as a preservative propels its demand in the cosmetics industry. Moreover, its utilization as an intermediate compound for the chemical synthesis and production of formic acid, oxalic acid, etc., fuels its demand in the chemical industry.

The applications of sodium formate in the production of medications and chemical compounds boost its demand in healthcare and chemical industries. The procurement of sodium formate is chiefly influenced by factors including its market prices, supply, logistics, demand and trade. Hence, the changes observed in any of these factors, including its demand as a sodium salt for preservation, chemical synthesis, coatings, and plastic production, directly govern the industrial sodium formate procurement across the borders.

Raw Material for Sodium Formate Production

According to the sodium formate manufacturing plant project report, the key raw materials for sodium formate Production includes sodium hydroxide-carbon monoxide.

Manufacturing Process of Sodium Formate

The extensive sodium formate production cost report consists of the following major industrial manufacturing process:

• From Sodium Hydroxide and Carbon Monoxide: The production process of sodium formate is initiated by the reaction between sodium hydroxide and carbon monoxide. The reaction, under controlled conditions, leads to the production of sodium formate at the end.

Sodium Formate is a sodium salt with the chemical formula HCOONa. Its molecular weight is 68.007 g/mol. Sodium Formate is the sodium salt of formic acid. It is an inorganic chemical compound with a white-colored crystalline appearance. It is a hygroscopic chemical with monoclinic crystals. It generally decomposes when heated at its boiling point. Its melting point is measured approximately at 253 °C. Its boiling point is measured at 360 °C.

It is a deliquescent chemical compound that is soluble in water. It is a crystalline powdered compound with a slight odor that resembles that of formic acid. The compound remains stable under normal conditions. It is incompatible with strong oxidizers and strong acids. It can be dissolved in water and certain other chemical solvents, including glycerol. Similarly, it is slightly soluble in ethanol. However, the compound is insoluble in ether.
