Applications:
1. Formic acid can soften the fur and remove hair.
2. In the tanning process of leather, it can be used as neutralizing agent to help improving the toughness and softness of the leather
3. During the color setting and dyeing process, it helps to penetrate the leather and enhance the dyeing effect.
4. It can regulate the PH during the leather processing, which reduces pore size and increases the density of the leather.

FAQ:
Q: What is formic acid?
A: Formic acid is an irritating chemical present in the sprayed venom of some ant species and in the secretion released from some stinging nettles. It's dangerous at high concentrations, but at low concentrations, it's very useful
Q: Is formic acid a strong acid?
A: A strong acid is an acid which dissociates entirely in aqueous solution. A weak acid is an acid which dissociates partially in aqueous solution. Formic acid (methanoic acid, HCOOH) is a weak acid, which occurs naturally in the stings of bees and ants.
Q: What is the source of formic acid?
A: The simplest carboxylic acid, with one carbon in it. It exists naturally in various ways like the bee and ant stings venom, and is a valuable organic synthetic reagent. In livestock feed, mainly used as a preservative and antibacterial agent.
Q: Is formic acid harmful to humans?
A: Formic acid is an unpleasant chemical that is found in certain ant species sprayed venom and in the secretion produced from some stinging nettles. This is harmful at high concentrations but it is very effective at low concentrations.
Q: How do you neutralize formic acid?
A: Baking soda (NaHCO3) is also used for the neutralization of acids, including formic acid. You would want to neutralize it with a thick paste of sodium bicarbonate water (NaHCO3) if you were to spill some formic acid solution on your skin or on the concrete.
