Descripción general del producto & beneficios clave
Trioxane is a white crystalline solid that releases formaldehyde when acids open its ring. Ring-opening copolymerization of trioxane with a small amount of a cyclic comonomer such as 1,3-dioxolane gives POM copolymer, the engineering plastic used for gears, clips and precision parts. In synthesis it is used where anhydrous formaldehyde is needed, and it is also used in disinfectant formulations.
For POM producers, pureza, agua, formic acid and methanol are the critical limits, because these impurities stop chain growth.
Anhydrous formaldehyde source
Releases formaldehyde on acid ring-opening, without the water and methanol that come with formalin.
Bagged solid
Supplied in 25 sacos de kg, with a batch COA for every lot.

embalaje & almacenamiento
embalaje
25 sacos de kg.
Almacenamiento
Keep bags closed in a cool, seco, ventilated store away from heat, acids and ignition sources: trioxane slowly sublimes and its vapor is flammable. Follow the SDS.
Transport
Trioxane is classed as a flammable solid for transport; the SDS gives the UN number and class.
Desde el primer correo electrónico hasta el suministro aprobado
Name the use
POM, synthesis or formulation: POM producers need much tighter impurity limits than other users.
Compara los números que importan
Pureza, agua, formic acid and methanol. Ask for them on the same COA template as your incoming inspection.
Plan storage and transport
Trioxane is a flammable solid. Agree packaging and port early, and store it cool and away from acids.
Trial, then lock the spec
Run a sample in your own process and keep the approved lot COA as the reference for contract limits.

1,3,5-Trioxane FAQ
What is 1,3,5-trioxane used for?
Mainly as the monomer for acetal (POM) copolymer. It is also a dry formaldehyde source in synthesis and is used in disinfectant formulations.
Which impurities matter for POM production?
Water, formic acid and methanol, because they stop chain growth. Agree these limits together with purity before sampling.
How is trioxane packed?
En 25 sacos de kg. It is a flammable solid for transport, so it ships with dangerous-goods documents.
Do you also supply 1,3-dioxolane?
Sí, 1,3-dioxolane is in our range. Ask for both in the same quotation if you make POM copolymer.
