Description and Uses

Perchloroethylene (Tetrachloroethylene) is a colourless liquid with a slightly ethereal odour. It is marginally soluble in water and soluble in most organic solvents.Perchloroethylene has a limited number of uses and applications. It is used as intermediate, as dry cleaning agent in the industrial and professional sector, as surface cleaning agent in industrial settings, as heat transfer medium in industrial settings, and in film cleaning and copying by professionals. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in the production of fluorinated compounds and in industrial surface cleaning metal degreasing. Occupational exposure to perchloroethylene is possible in the manufacturing facilities or the industrial facilities where it is used as an intermediate.

Tetrachloroethylene is used as a solvent, indrycleaning, and in metal degreasing.Tetrachloroethylene is a common industrial solvent that is often found as a contaminant in groundwater. Tetrachloroethylene is also a suspected carcinogen to humans and is difficult to degrade biologically as it has no natural source. This compound is a contaminant of emerging concern (CECs).
