Answers:
The main inbgredient in embalming fluid is a chemical called formaldehyde!. It smells awful and should not be breathe!.

Embalming chemicals are a variety of preservatives, sanitising and disinfectant agents and additives used in modern embalming to temporarily prevent decomposition and restore a natural appearance for viewing a body after death!. A mixture of these chemicals is known as embalming fluid and is used to preserve deceased individuals, sometimes only until the funeral, other times indefinitely!.

Typically embalming fluid contains a mixture of formaldehyde, methanol, ethanol and other solvents!. The formaldehyde content generally ranges from 5 to 29 percent and the ethanol content may range from 9 to 56 percent!.

In the United States alone, enough embalming fluid is buried every year to fill eight Olympic-size pools!.[1] (~20 million liters)Www@Answer-Health@Com
