Formamide (CAS 75-12-7, EINECS 200-842-0) is a clear, colorless, hygroscopic liquid supplied by SUNWAY in three purity grades. Industrial clients use it as a solvent, reaction medium, and processing intermediate in chemical, pharmaceutical, and agrochemical production. This page details the specifications, packaging, and quality controls behind each grade.
Formamide is a clear, colorless liquid with a weak ammonia-like odor. It is miscible with water and alcohols, slightly soluble in benzene and ether, and hygroscopic, so drums should be resealed immediately after sampling.
Formamide has a melting point of 2.55 °C and a boiling point of 210-212 °C, with partial decomposition beginning at 180 °C. Its flash point is 154 °C (closed cup), and its specific gravity is 1.1334 at 20 °C. Decomposition releases ammonia and hydrogen cyanide, so storage areas must be ventilated and kept away from oxidants, acids, and bases.
The table below lists the three commercial grades: 99.5%, 99.0%, and 98.0% (m/m) minimum Formamide content.

As a polar solvent, Formamide dissolves many organic compounds and supports high-temperature reactions where lower-boiling solvents are impractical. It is used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, dyes, and fine chemicals.
Formamide is a feedstock for nitrogen-containing intermediates used in agrochemical and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Its decomposition chemistry also provides a controlled source of hydrogen cyanide in specialized processes.
