Product Description

Perchloroethylene, also known as tetrachloroethylene or perc, has been used safely in industry for over *0 years. It is an effective, nonflammable solvent that does not contribute to the formation of smog (ground-level ozone) or to the depletion of stratospheric ozone. Perchloroethylene is the primary solvent used in commercial and industrial dry cleaning. Since being introduced to the drycleaning industry in the late ***0s, it replaced most other solvents because of its relatively low toxicity and nonflammability. Its other major uses are as a chemical intermediate in the production of several fluorinated compounds, a metal cleaning and degreasing solvent, and a solvent in automotive aerosols.
