Perchloroethylene PCE CAS 127-18-5
Perchloroethylene (PCE) is a versatile organic solvent with key applications across industries:
- Dry cleaning: It is the dominant solvent for cleaning fabrics (both natural and synthetic) due to its strong stain-removing ability, non-flammability, and recyclability .
- Metal processing: Used for vapor degreasing and cleaning metal parts in aerospace, automotive, and electronics sectors, effectively removing oils, waxes, and residues .
- Chemical synthesis: Serves as an intermediate for producing refrigerants, PVC, and other fluorine/chlorine-containing compounds; also acts as a catalyst source in oil refining .
- General solvent: Applied in paints, inks, adhesives, and degreasers; functions as an extractant for fats and a textile processing agent .
- Other uses: Historically used as an anthelmintic (for hookworms/liver flukes) and in PE cleaning .
