    Product Description

    Perchlorethylene (PCE) CAS 127-18-4 is a chlorinated solvent with the molecular formula C2Cl4.

    Synonyms: Perchloroethylene; Tetrachloroethylene; PCE.

    CAS: 127-18-4.

    Molecular formula: C2Cl4.

    It is supplied as a clear, colorless, volatile liquid for industrial use.

    It is also called tetrachloroethylene.

    It is mainly used in industrial cleaning, metal degreasing, solvent-based maintenance, and selected manufacturing operations requiring a chlorinated solvent.

    It is a bulk industrial raw material, not a consumer product.

    In industrial cleaning and metal degreasing it is used where a chlorinated solvent is required.

    In solvent-based maintenance it is used depending on equipment compatibility, residue requirements, and local regulatory restrictions.

    In selected manufacturing operations it is used subject to grade confirmation and application validation.

    Industrial and catalyst or reagent grades differ in purity and residue limits.

    Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area in tightly closed original containers, away from heat, ignition sources, strong oxidizers, and incompatible materials.

    Use appropriate solvent-resistant PPE, local exhaust ventilation, and spill controls.

    Confirm the offered package, lot traceability, and hazardous-material transport documentation before dispatch, and follow the current SDS.

    Every batch is checked for appearance, purity or assay, water content, acidity, stabilizer type and concentration, non-volatile residue, and color, with COA/TDS/SDS supplied per grade.

    Confirm purity, water content, acidity, stabilizer content, non-volatile residue, packaging, and grade as required.

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      What is Perchlorethylene, and how is it identified?

      A: Perchlorethylene, also called tetrachloroethylene, is a chlorinated solvent identified by CAS 127-18-4 and molecular formula C2Cl4. It is supplied as a clear, colorless, volatile liquid for industrial use. Confirm the CAS number, purity, stabilizer content, water content, and offered grade on the batch analysis.
    • Q:

      Where is Perchlorethylene mainly used?

      A: It is mainly used in industrial cleaning, metal degreasing, solvent-based maintenance, and selected manufacturing operations requiring a chlorinated solvent. It is a bulk industrial raw material, not a consumer product. Confirm equipment compatibility, residue requirements, and local regulatory restrictions before use.
    • Q:

      Which specifications should be checked before ordering?

      A: Confirm appearance, purity or assay, water content, acidity, stabilizer type and concentration, non-volatile residue, and color. Industrial and catalyst or reagent grades differ in purity and residue limits, so the target grade should be specified before sampling.
    • Q:

      How should Perchlorethylene be stored and handled?

      A: Store it in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area in tightly closed original containers, away from heat, ignition sources, strong oxidizers, and incompatible materials. Use appropriate solvent-resistant PPE, local exhaust ventilation, and spill controls. Confirm the offered package, lot traceability, and hazardous-material transport documentation before dispatch.
