Formic acid 96%, ACS is a clear, colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is simplest form of carboxylic acid and also known as methanoic acid. Its assay is not less than 96%. Its chemical formula is HCOOH and it contains only one carbon. It is about 10 times stronger than Acetic Acid. The high acidity level and reducing nature of this compound, makes it different from other carboxylic acids. Formic acid is a simple carboxylic acid produced by the hydrolysis of methyl formate or formamide or from its salts.
