1. As an excellent drilling fluid, completion fluid and workover fluid, it has been widely used in the oilfield industry.
2, in the snow melting agent, acetate due to the heavy acetic acid in the air after snow melting, causing a certain degree of corrosion on the road surface, has been gradually phased out, and potassium formate not only has a good snow melting effect, but also overcome the disadvantages of acetic acid, is currently a popular snow melting agent.
3. Used as reducing agent in printing and dyeing industry.
4, it can also be used as an early strength agent of cement slurry, as well as mining, electroplating and other industries, crop foliation fertilizer.
