Formic Acid 85% / 90% for Leather and Industrial Sourcing

Public sourcing candidate for formic acid solution offered in 85% and 90% concentrations, positioned for leather processing and general industrial procurement. Buyer verification should focus on CAS identity, concentration assay, acidity profile, color, residue, chloride/sulfate limits, packing format, export documentation, and dangerous goods shipping readiness before RFQ or sample approval.

Identity and grade

Typical specifications

  • Chemical name: Formic acid solution, buyer to confirm CAS 64-18-6 on COA/SDS
  • Concentration: 85% or 90%, to be confirmed by batch COA
  • Appearance: colorless transparent liquid, confirm against supplier specification
  • Key checks: assay, color, residue on evaporation, chloride, sulfate, iron, heavy metals, and water content where applicable
  • Grade: industrial or leather-use grade; AR/reagent claims in source text require separate verification
  • Application fit: leather processing, dyeing auxiliaries, rubber/textile/chemical intermediate sourcing where permitted
  • Sample and pre-shipment COA recommended for each lot

Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Common packing to verify: 35 kg drum, 250 kg drum, IBC, or customized export package
  • Confirm drum/IBC material compatibility, net weight, palletization, marks, seals, and batch traceability
  • Request photos of actual packing, label, UN/DG marks, and container loading method before shipment
  • Confirm whether supplier can provide commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, COA, SDS, and certificate of origin if required
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Leather processing chemical procurement where formic acid concentration and impurity limits are specified
  • Industrial acid sourcing for distributors requiring COA/SDS-backed lots
  • Bulk import planning for drum or IBC packed corrosive liquid shipments
  • Supplier qualification where listing data must be reconciled with formal product documents
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • 85% formic acid in drum packing
  • 90% formic acid in drum packing
  • IBC-packed formic acid for larger-volume buyers
  • Pre-shipment sample with COA and SDS review
  • Custom export packing subject to supplier confirmation
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Formic acid is typically treated as a corrosive dangerous good for transport; confirm UN number, hazard class, packing group, and mode-specific requirements with the supplier and freight forwarder
  • Do not rely on the source page classification alone; the listing text contains inconsistent reagent and product information
  • Request current SDS in destination-market language or accepted international format
  • Buyer should verify import rules, end-use restrictions, and local chemical inventory status in the destination country
  • Confirm whether concentration, package size, and route are acceptable for sea, air, or land transport before quotation
  • No regulatory approval or customs clearance should be assumed from supplier claims without document review
