Hydroxybasic formaldehyde is a trade term for Polyoxymethylene Glycol (POM), a thermoplastic polymer produced via polymerization of formaldehyde. Its molecular structure consists of repeating methylene oxide units terminated with hydroxyl groups. The chemical formula is typically represented as H-(OCH₂)ₙ-OH, with CAS No. 25148-69-2.
Strictly store in cool, dry environments away from oxidizers to prevent degradation. Handling requires respiratory protection due to potential formaldehyde off-gassing during processing. Do not ingest or inhale dust particles.
