Glutaraldehyde, also known as Pentanedial, Glutaric dialdehyde, or Glutaraldehyde Solution BP, is a chemical compound with the CAS number 111-30-8 and the molecular formula C5H8O2.
It has many synonyms, such as PENTANDIAL, Glutarldehyde, and Glutaraldehybe Soution.
It is a colorless or yellowish liquid with a pungent odor and a density of 1.058 g/mL.
It has a melting point of -15 °C, a boiling point of 100 °C, and a flash point of 100°C.
It is soluble in water and organic solvents, but it can polymerize and oxidize easily.
It can also react with active oxygen compounds and nitrogen-containing compounds.
It is non-flammable, but flammable in case of open flame and high heat.
Glutaraldehyde is mainly used as a bactericide and a crosslinking agent in various industrial and chemical fields, such as oilfield chemicals, water treatment, petrochemical industry, paper making, metal processing, oil field water injection, organic synthesis, leather industry, and protein crosslinking.
It can sterilize and control the microorganisms in water systems, and remove the slime and biofilm.
It has the advantages of quaternary ammonium salt series bactericide, such as no foaming, easy to use, and good compatibility with corrosion inhibitor. It can be used alone or in combination with other drugs.
It has moderate toxicity and can irritate the respiratory tract, eyes, and skin. It should be handled with care and protection.
