Common Applications of Trichloroethylene Chemical
1. Degreasing and Cleaning of Industrial Metals
Trichloroethylene (CAS No: 79-01-6) is a core solvent in metal processing. It is widely used to remove stubborn grease, oil stains, and contaminants from metal equipment, machine parts, and precision components. TCE solvent is non-flammable and has a high boiling point, allowing for steam degreasing and ensuring thorough cleaning and safety even at high temperatures.
2. Raw Material for Refrigerant Production
TCE Chemical is an essential chemical raw material in the production of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants. It is used in the synthesis and production of refrigerants for HVAC systems, refrigeration equipment, and related industrial cooling applications.
3. Extraction Solvent in the Textile Industry
In textile processing, Solvent TCE is a specialized extraction solvent. It effectively dissolves and removes natural impurities from fabrics such as cotton and wool.
4. Chemical Intermediate in Pharmaceutical Production
Trichloroethylene liquid is an important chemical intermediate, primarily used in the pharmaceutical industry. It participates in chemical synthesis reactions for the production and preparation of pharmaceutical ingredients and compounds.
5. Additives
In addition to industrial applications, TCE is also added as a functional ingredient to many everyday and chemical products:
- Typewriter correction fluid
- Adhesives and lubricants
- Fabric stain removers
- Paint removers and thinners
- Carpet cleaners
Safety Information of trichloroethylene 79-01-6
- Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents, as this can cause a violent reaction.
- Do not mix with acids, as this can form toxic gases such as phosgene.
- Avoid prolonged or repeated exposure to vapors, as Trichloroethylene is classified as a carcinogen.
- Prevent spills from reaching drains, sewers, or water bodies, as it is harmful to the environment.
