Tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C2Cl4 and is a colorless liquid.
CAS 127-18-4 Tetrachloroethylene is insoluble in sugar, glycerol and protein, slightly soluble in water (0.015 at 25°C), and miscible with ethanol, ether, chloroform, benzene and chlorine organic solvents. It does not hydrolyze. In the absence of air, moisture and catalyst, it is still very stable even when heated to 500°C.
Industrial Grade Perchloroethylene Uses
1. In industry, tetrachlorethylene is mainly used as solvent, organic synthesis, metal surface cleaner and dry cleaning agent, desulfurizer, heat transfer medium. It is also an intermediate for the production of trichlorethylene and fluorine-containing organic compounds. Ordinary residents may be exposed to low concentrations of perchlorethylene through the atmosphere, food and drinking water.
2. Perchloroethylene has good solubility for many inorganic and organic compounds. Such as sulfur, iodine, mercuric chloride, aluminum trichloride, fat, rubber and resin, etc. This solubility is widely used as metal degreasing cleaning agent, paint remover, dry cleaning agent, rubber solvent, ink solvent, liquid soap, degreasing of high-grade fur and feathers.
