What is dichloroethane chemical used for?

Over 95% of all 1,2-dichloroethane produced is used for a single purpose: the production of Vinyl Chloride Monomer (VCM).

 

The Process: Dichloroethane EDC is heated at very high temperatures in a process called "cracking," where it breaks down to form VCM and hydrogen chloride.
The Final Product: VCM is then polymerized to create Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), one of the most widely used plastics in the world.

 

The PVC made from 1,2-dichloroethane chemical is used everywhere in:

  • Construction: Pipes, window frames, siding, and flooring.
  • Healthcare: Medical tubing, blood bags, and IV fluid containers.
  • Consumer Goods: Credit cards, packaging, and synthetic leather.
