Glyoxal 40%, the smallest dialdehyde, is a highly reactive chemical intermediate used primarily in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, paper and textiles. It is miscible in water and has a weak sour odour.
1.What is the density of 40% glyoxal?
Glyoxal 40% is colorless transparent aqueous solution (density is 1.267~1.275 g/mL).
2.What is the difference between Glycol and glyoxal?
Glycol and glyoxal are organic compounds that are very important in the organic chemical processes. The key difference between glycol and glyoxal is that glycol is any aliphatic diol, whereas glyoxal is the dialdehyde ethanedial derived from ethylene glycol.
3. Is glyoxal 40% biodegradable?
Glyoxal 40% is readily biodegradable.
4. What is the pH of glyoxal solution?
PH 1.6~3.5
5. What does glyoxal smell like?
Glyoxal 40% is with a weak sour odor.
6. Is glyoxal an aldehyde or ketone?
Glyoxal (OHC–CHO) is a dialdehyde.
7. Does glyoxal 40% have alpha hydrogen?
In glyoxal 40% both aldehyde group lacks alpha hydrogen.
8. What happens when glyoxal 40% reacts with amines?
The reactions of glyoxal 40% with ammonia, ammonium salts, and amines cause the formation of the secondary organic aerosol (SOA) components (imidazole and its derivatives) in the atmosphere.
9. What is catalyzer for Glyoxal 40%?
Silver
10. What is the ratio of ethylene glycol and Glyoxal 40%?
0.6 : 1
