Dichloromethane, Glass Distilled, HPLC-UV, ACS, Spectro – CH₂Cl₂ | CAS 75-09-2

Product Overview

Dichloromethane (DCM), also known as methylene chloride, is a volatile, colorless liquid chlorinated hydrocarbon prized for its exceptional solvency and low boiling point. This glass-distilled grade is specifically refined for high-performance applications, meeting or exceeding HPLC-UV and spectroscopy standards. It is ideal for analytical laboratories and sensitive manufacturing environments requiring ultra-pure solvents free of UV-absorbing impurities.
