description Product Description
Used primarily as a chemical intermediate in the production of vinyl chloride monomer, which is essential for manufacturing polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. It serves as a solvent in industrial processes, including the extraction of oils and fats, and in the formulation of adhesives and rubber. Historically used as a lead scavenger in leaded gasoline, this application has been largely discontinued. Also employed in the synthesis of other chlorinated compounds and as a degreasing agent for metal parts. Due to its toxicity and environmental concerns, its use is now highly regulated in many applications.
