Polyform F Neutralizer Shaker Bottle (500gm/Bottle)

The strength or concentration of the formalin does
not matter when using PolyForm-F™

While it is most commonly used for 10% Neutral
Buffered Formalin (NBF)—the standard concentration found in medical and
veterinary pathology labs—it is fully capable of neutralizing much higher
concentrations, including 20% NBF and concentrated formaldehyde
solutions.

The primary difference when dealing with varying
concentrations comes down to reaction time and absorption properties:

• 10% Formalin (Standard): The chemical neutralization
  and vapor elimination typically take about 5 minutes.
• Higher Concentrations
  (20%+): It
  will successfully neutralize the liquid, but the chemical reaction takes
  longer, usually requiring 15 minutes or more to fully complete.

The recommendation is sticking to a consistent
volume-to-weight ratio regardless of concentration:

• Use 1 gram of granules
  for every 1 millilitre of spilt formalin liquid.
• Ensure the granules are
  completely free-flowing before use; if the product has clumped inside its
  bottle due to moisture exposure, its neutralization effectiveness will be
  heavily compromised.
