What is Perchloroethylene?
Perchloroethylene, also known as tetrachloroethylene or perc, is a colorless, non-flammable liquid with a distinctive, sweet odor. This chlorinated hydrocarbon dissolves grease, oils, and waxes effectively, making it a valuable cleaning and degreasing agent in several industries. Its chemical stability and excellent solvency power contribute to its wide use in industrial and commercial applications.
Applications
1. Dry Cleaning Industry
Dry cleaning companies rely on it as the primary solvent for cleaning fabrics. It removes stains, oils, and dirt from garments without causing damage to delicate fabrics. Perc evaporates quickly, allowing dry cleaners to reuse it in multiple cleaning cycles.
2. Metal Degreasing
Manufacturers in metalworking industries use it to clean and degrease metal parts and equipment. It dissolves heavy oils, greases, and contaminants from machinery, tools, and engine components. This ensures proper adhesion of paints, coatings, and adhesives in subsequent processes.
3. Chemical Manufacturing
Perchloroethylene acts as a chemical intermediate in the production of fluorinated compounds and other industrial chemicals. Its solvency and stability make it useful in chemical synthesis and formulation processes.
4. Automotive Sector
The automotive industry uses Perchloroethylene to clean engine parts, transmission components, and other vehicle assemblies. It effectively removes built-up grease and grime, ensuring optimal performance and maintenance.
5. Textile Processing
Textile manufacturers use Perchloroethylene to remove oils and waxes from synthetic fabrics during manufacturing and finishing processes. Its strong solvency power helps improve fabric quality and appearance.
6. Electronics Cleaning
Electronics manufacturers use Perchloroethylene to clean circuit boards and electronic components. It removes flux residues and other contaminants without leaving moisture or damaging sensitive parts.
