Avoid direct contact with eyes and skin

 

Wear protective gloves and goggles to prevent irritation.Make sure to carefully read and follow all instructions on the packaging of any chemicals or materials you are using. It is important to prioritize your safety at all times while working with potentially hazardous substances.

 

Inhale dust with caution

 

Use a respirator in dusty environments to avoid respiratory irritation.Make sure the respirator fits properly and is rated for the specific type of dust you are exposed to. Change the filters regularly and follow all safety guidelines provided by the manufacturer. Your health is important, so take the necessary precautions to protect yourself in dusty environments.

 

Handle with care

 

Avoid spills and ensure proper ventilation.In case of a spill, clean it up immediately using appropriate materials and dispose of them properly. Keep windows and doors open to allow fresh air to circulate and prevent the buildup of fumes. Regularly check ventilation systems to ensure they are working effectively.

 

Production Method of Sodium Formate

 

 

It is obtained in industrial by the reaction of carbon monoxide with sodium hydroxide at 150-170 ℃, about 2MPa. In fact, the production process of sodium formate is part of the production of sodium oxalate, the concentration of sodium hydroxide solution for absorbing the reaction was 25%-30%.

 

Sodium formate can be produced by the reaction of formic acid with oxygen or sodium bicarbonate. Material consumption fixed: Carbon monoxide (> 28%) 1630kg/t, caustic soda (> 30%) 2160kg/t. 2. It is the byproduct of pentaerythritol. It is obtained by the reaction of carbon monoxide with sodium hydroxide at 160 ℃, 2MPa.
