Dichloroethane (1,2-), Ethylene Dichloride

Dichloroethane (1,2-), Technical – C₂H₄Cl₂ | CAS 107-06-2

Product Overview

Dichloroethane (1,2-), also known as ethylene dichloride, is a chlorinated hydrocarbon primarily used as an intermediate in the production of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), the precursor to PVC plastics. This technical-grade material is also employed as a solvent in closed systems for adhesives, cleaning agents, and textile processing. Due to its volatility and toxicity, proper handling and ventilation are critical.


Key Industries

  • Plastics & Polymers – Key precursor for vinyl chloride monomer in PVC manufacturing
  • Chemical Manufacturing – Used in synthesis of chlorinated organics and intermediates
  • Adhesives & Sealants – Functions as a solvent in industrial adhesive formulations
  • Textile Processing – Solvent applications in specialty coating and treatment operations
  • Cleaning Compounds – Degreasing and heavy-duty cleaning in industrial environments (closed systems only)

Packaging Options

This product is available in a variety of packaging sizes to meet both small-scale laboratory and large-scale industrial needs. Custom volumes and container types are available upon request, ensuring flexibility for your application and storage requirements.
