Tetrachloroethylene is an efficient, non-flammable chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent, primarily used as a dry-cleaning solvent, metal degreaser, and industrial cleaner. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in producing fluorochemicals and as a solvent in specialty chemical processes.
Tetrachloroethylene (CAS No.: 127-18-4), commonly known as perchloroethylene, is a chlorinated ethylene containing four chlorine atoms. It is non-flammable, chemically stable, leaves no residue upon evaporation, and possesses strong solvency for grease and dirt. These properties have made it the solvent of choice in the traditional dry-cleaning industry, effectively cleaning delicate fabrics like wool and silk without damaging fibers. In the industrial sector, it is an efficient metal degreaser and parts cleaner, widely used in machining, electronics manufacturing, and automotive repair. Additionally, tetrachloroethylene is an important intermediate in producing refrigerants such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). Due to its potential environmental and health impacts, its use in applications like dry cleaning is facing stricter regulations and challenges from alternative technologies. Our product, manufactured in Shandong, China, is produced using mature processes such as the acetylene route or ethylene oxychlorination, achieving a purity of ≥99.5% with very low acid value and moisture content. It offers stable quality, meeting the requirements for industrial cleaning and specific chemical synthesis.
