NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. believes that a comprehensive understanding of chemical properties and safety protocols is essential for our customers. Sodium formate, chemically known as HCOONa, is the sodium salt of formic acid. It exists as a white crystalline powder that is slightly hygroscopic and readily soluble in water, forming a slightly alkaline solution. Its molecular weight is 68.007 g/mol. A key characteristic is its thermal decomposition: upon heating, it breaks down into hydrogen gas and sodium oxalate, which further decomposes into sodium carbonate. This property is crucial to consider during storage and handling, especially avoiding high temperatures.

When you buy sodium formate, it's important to be aware of its handling and storage requirements. While generally considered non-dangerous for transport, it's always advisable to store it in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents and strong acids. Proper personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves and eye protection, should be used when handling the powder to avoid skin and eye irritation. For bulk purchases, ensuring appropriate containment and handling procedures are in place is paramount.
