Celanese is the largest merchant producer of stabilized aqueous formaldehyde.
And para.
And Formcels.
And trioxane.
Nobody makes more formaldehyde than Celanese. Or can offer you all four forms. Stabilized aqueous, for example. We invented the process. Our Texas production facilities are massive—a capacity of more than 500 million pounds annually. And strategically located satellite plants in New Jersey and South Carolina speed shipments from our plants to yours. But most important, our patented organic stabilizing systems effectively retard paraformation, making pos sible shipment and storage at lower temperatures. With greater economy. And Celanese stabilized solutions have less build-up of acids, which adds life to your storage and handling equipment, cuts maintenance costs. Our para is highly concentrated (91-95%). Which means you can eliminate the tanks, pumps and other equipment needed for liquid formaldehyde—with big savings in the cost of new plants, or modernizing design, including hopper car deliveries, if you like. And para gives larger batches—higher yields—in shorter processing time. Greater flexibility in resin formulation. Our Formcel alcohol solutions have so little water that you probably won't have to distill any off. So processing is faster. And we now offer two grades of methyl Formcel—46.5% and 55% formaldehyde; η-butyl Formcel—40%; isobutyl Formcel—40%. And trioxane. Celanese trioxane is the only source of anhydrous formaldehyde. We ship it in solid blocks, in handy polyethylene containers. For any form of formaldehyde, come to Celanese. No one can better help you with applications, economics or shipments.
