Primary Applications of Methylene Chloride (Dichloromethane)
Methylene Chloride's unique properties as a highly effective solvent with a low boiling point and non-flammability make it incredibly valuable and versatile across numerous sectors:
Paint Strippers and Adhesives:
Its powerful solvent action makes Methylene Chloride a primary component in many paint strippers, varnish removers, and adhesive formulations. It effectively dissolves various coatings and glues.
Metal Degreasing:
Methylene Chloride is widely used in cold cleaning and vapor degreasing operations to remove oils, greases, and other contaminants from metal parts in the automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries.
Pharmaceutical Manufacturing:
It serves as a critical reaction solvent and extraction solvent in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis and purification of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates.
Aerosol Propellants:
Due to its non-flammability and appropriate boiling point, it's used as a co-propellant or solvent in various aerosol products, including spray paints and insecticides.
Blowing Agent for Foams:
It acts as a blowing agent in the production of polyurethane foams and other plastic foams, contributing to their cellular structure.
Film Coating and Decaffeination:
Methylene Chloride is used in the film coating industry and, historically, for decaffeinating coffee and tea (though this application has largely shifted to other methods).
