Description and Uses
1,2,3-Trichloropropane is a synthetic chemical that is also known as allyl trichloride, glycerol trichlorohydrin, and trichlorohydrin. It is a colourless, heavy liquid with a sweet but strong chloroform-like odour and is combustible. It is slightly soluble in water but soluble in chloroform, diethyl ether, and ethanol. On contact with heat/ fire, It releases off irritating or toxic fumes (or gases). It evaporates very quickly and small amounts dissolve in water. It is mainly used to make other chemicals. 1,2,3-Trichloropropane was used in the past mainly as a solvent and extractive agent, including as a paint and varnish remover and as a cleaning and degreasing agent. It is now used mainly as a chemical intermediate, for example, in the production of polysulphone liquid polymers, dichloropropene and hexafluoropropylene and as a cross-linking agent in the synthesis of polysulphides.
Intermediate in the manufacture of pesticides and polysulfide rubbers; formerly used as a solvent and extractive agent.
