What is the flash point of Trichloroethylene PCE?
CAS 127-18-4 Tetrachloroethylene (PCE) has a measurable flash point under normal conditions, meaning they are considered non-flammable liquids at room temperature.
What is tetrachloroethylene (PCE CAS 127-18-4) used for?
Dry Cleaning
Tetrachloroethylene PCE works as a solvent for dry cleaning. Its strong cleaning power, non-flammable nature, and ability to dissolve all kinds of stains make it perfect for cleaning all fabrics-even delicate garments and textiles.
Metal Degreasing
CAS 127-18-4 PCE is a widely used degreaser in metalworking industries. It effectively removes oils, greases, and other contaminants from metal surfaces, getting them ready for painting, coating, or machining processes.
Chemical Intermediates
PCE acts as a key raw material for making various chemicals. It is used to produce hydrofluorocarbons-refrigerants that do not deplete the ozone layer and have low global warming potential.
Production of Vinyl Chloride
PCE/Perchloroethylene is used to make vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), the main precursor for PVC manufacturing. Through a series of chemical reactions, PCE is converted into intermediate substances that eventually turn into VCM.
Metal Cleaning and Surface Treatment
Tetrachloroethylene PCE cleans and treats the surfaces of metals, including precision parts, automotive components, and electronic equipment. It removes contaminants, oils, and residues to boost metal quality and performance. PCE also functions as a chemical maskant, applied to the skins of commercial and military aircraft to protect sensitive areas.
