General:

Glutaraldehyde (also glutaraldehyd and glutaraldeido) is colorless or yellowish clear liquid which can be used in oil well drilling and other oilfield process. Our products include Glutaraldehyde 50% solution and Glutaraldehyd 25% solution. Both of them are broad-spectrum biocides which can be used in water flooding, drilling mud and other oil production process. Glutaraldehyde based disinfectant products achieve microbial control by disabling cell wall amino acids. Glutaraldehyde biocide performed much more rapidly than THPS, achieving significantly greater log reductions of seawater SRBs at same concentrations. Glutaraldehyde solution can be used together with other biocides such as BAC 80% and DDBAC.

Physical natures:  

Colorless or yellowish bright liquid with slight irritating odor;  Soluble in water, ether and ethanol. 

It is active, can be easily polymerized and oxidized, and it is an excellent cross-linking agent for protein. 

It also has excellent sterilizing properties.

In water solution, Glutaraldehyde doesn't exist much in free state; instead, Glutaraldehyde makes appearance as hydrates with different forms.and most of them are hydrates with annular structure.

Specification

Application:

It's as bactericide, disinfector, crosslinker for protein, leather tanning agent.
Widely used for oil production, medical care, bio-chemical, leather treatment, tanning agents, protein cross-linking agent; in the preparation of heterocyclic compounds; also used for plastics, adhesives, fuels, perfumes, textile, paper making, printing; corrosion prevention of instruments and cosmetics etc.

Storage: 

Glutaraldehyde 50% has a shelf life of 12 months in unopened, original containers and kept below 25ºC. Ensure thorough ventilation of stores and work areas. Avoid aerosol formation and keep under inert gas.
