What is Dichloromethane CAS 75-09-2?
CAS 75-09-2 Dichloromethane (also commonly known as Methylene Chloride, Methylene Dichloride, Di-clo and DCM) is a clear, slightly sweet-smelling organic liquid chemical solvent. It serves many industrial functions, such as being an active ingredient in organic-based paint strippers, a solvent in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals and medicines, a propellant in aerosols for insecticides and spray paint, and a key agent in the production of decaffeinated coffee beans and tea leaves, as well as in preparing flavorings for the food and beverage industries. Despite its widespread utility, it can pose significant workplace safety risks if strict handling instructions are not followed.
