Product Description

Ethylene DiChloride The chemical compound Ethylene Di Chloride, commonly known as 1,2-dichloroethane.It is a colourless liquidwith odour. The most common use of 1,2-dichloroethane is in the production of vinyl chloride, which is used to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, furniture and automobile upholstery, wall coverings, housewares, and automobile parts

With about 95%of ethylene dichloride (EDC) being used in the manufacture of vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), nearly all of which goes into polyvinyl chloride (PVC), EDC supply/demand balances are influenced by the PVC market. In addition, many EDC plants are integrated with VCM production.

Other outlets for EDC are chlorinated solvents such as trichloroethylene, ethylene amines, vinylidene chloride and trichloroethane. It is used as an intermediate in the production of perchloroethylene(tetrachloroethylene) and as a catalyst in hexachlorophene production. EDC has been used as a solvent in the textile, metal cleaning and adhesives industries. Solvent markets tend to be mature due to environmental pressures to reduce emissions and declining in the case of perchloroethylene.
