Methylene chloride is a clear, colorless and volatile liquid with unique pungent odor, used successfully in foam blowing, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, paint and varnish remover, plastics processing, aerosols, metal degreasing and cleaning.

Methylene chloride is used as a process solvent in its own right and as a highly versatile solvent for formulation work when mixed with other chemicals, while sustaining excellent combination of chemical and physical properties, including high solvency power, stability, non-flammability and a low boiling point, have led to its use in a wide variety of applications and industries.

Applications:

- Electronic Material Processing (a material for secondary batteries etc.)

- Pharmaceuticals

- Reaction solvent for lower boiling point

- Metal cleanser, Urethan foaming

- A raw material for alternative refregerant (R-32)
