What is trichloroethylene used for?
Trichloroethylene (CAS 79-01-6) is most commonly used as an industrial degreaser. It is highly effective at removing grease, oil and lubricants from metal parts, and this application is widely adopted in the automotive and aerospace industries.
As a raw material, Trichloroethylene (CAS 79-01-6) plays an important role in chemical production. It is a key intermediate for manufacturing fluorochemicals, especially hydrofluorocarbons, which are essential materials for the production of refrigeration equipment and refrigerants.
Trichloroethylene (CAS 79-01-6) is also a versatile solvent for various production and daily use scenarios. It is added to many industrial and commercial products such as adhesives, lubricants, paints and coatings as a solvent. It is also an ingredient in common consumer cleaning agents, including aerosol cleaners, spot removers, carpet cleaners and wood cleaners.
In addition, TCE is applied in various manufacturing processes. It is used in the production of printing inks and varnishes to adjust product properties, and is also involved in rubber processing, providing technical support for the production of related rubber products.
Trichloroethylene (CAS 79-01-6) had more application scenarios in history. It was once used for coffee decaffeination, dry cleaning of clothes and even as an anesthetic in medical field. But due to potential health risks, including possible links to cancer and immune system damage, its use is now strictly regulated. Some regions have even banned its application in certain industrial fields to reduce health and safety hazards.
