Trichloroethylene solvent Key Uses in Metal Degreasing:
Vapor Degreasing: Trichloroethylene TCE vapor condenses on metal parts, effectively dissolving surface contaminants and thoroughly cleaning and drying the parts.
Industrial Applications: Widely used in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries for degreasing engine parts, CNC machine tool parts, and printed circuit boards.
Professional Cleaning: Suitable for precision cleaning in manufacturing.
Advantages: Strong dissolving power, non-flammable, and fast drying speed, far superior to many other cleaning solvents.
Regulatory Status and Environmental Impact
Regulatory Status
Trichloroethylene (TCE) is regulated in many countries due to its potential health risks:
- EU (REACH): Restricts its use for certain industrial applications
- US (OSHA/EPA): Controls exposure limits and workplace regulations
- In some industrial applications, its use is still permitted with strict adherence to relevant regulations.
Environmental Impact
Trichloroethylene solvent presents several environmental problems:
- Low water solubility but high persistence → Potential groundwater contamination
- High density → Will sink in water and spread into the ground
- Slow degradation → Causes long-term environmental impact
- Improper handling may lead to soil and water pollution
