Formaldehyde
Test Kit
ISTR3838R2 10/02 PRINTED IN ITALY
Formaldehyde is used widely in industry. Its duties vary
from holding dyes onto fabrics, to assisting in the electroplating
of metals. Each application uses different levels of formaldehyde
and requires monitoring to optimize its given purpose.
The Hanna Formaldehyde Test Kit makes monitoring easy,
quick and safe. The compact size gives the user the versatility
to use the kit practically anywhere. The design of the kit
makes it practically impossible to spill the reagents, thereby
reducing the possibility of injury or damage to property.

SIGNIFICANCE AND USE
CHEMICAL REACTION
The formaldehyde concentration is determined by a simple
acid titration. The formaldehyde, in the aqueous sample,
reacts with Sodium Sulfite to form an alkaline product. This
product is then titrated to a Yellow Alizarin R yellow
endpoint, using a prestandardized hydrochloric acid solution:
