Formic Acid, a colorless to yellow liquid with a pungent odor, is the strongest of the simple, unsaturated carboxylic acids. It has been used for many years as an environmentally friendly alternative in industries such as textiles, natural rubber and leather processing. Formic acid is miscible with water and has excellent properties in controlling acidity, effectively restricting microbial growth and is readily biodegradable.
