Formox Formaldehyde by Oxidation
Formox Formaldehyde by Oxidation : A process for oxidizing methanol to formaldehyde, using a ferric molybdate catalyst. Based on the Adkins-Peterson reaction, developed by Reichold Chemicals, and licensed by that company and Perstorp, Sweden. Acquired by Dyno Industries in 1989. The process uses formaldehyde produced in this way to make formaldehyde-urea resin continuously. A plant using this process was to be built in Ghent by 1991, owned jointly by Dyno and AHB-Chemie. Licensed to 35 sites worldwide. Several other companies operate similar processes
