General characters:
Colorless liquid,with characteristic odor,Relative density D4201.326,Meltingpoint-96.7℃,Boilingpoint:40.4℃, If it is
mixed with high concentrated oxygen,the explosivemixture is formed but it is not inflammable,It is one of the low-
boiling-pointindustrial solvents that have small itoxicity,no inflammable,It has goodsolubility for many resin,wax and
fat,soluble in water slightly,easy soluble inother chloro solvent,ethoxyethane and ethanol.Dichloromethane can take
placehydrolysis with water in certain temperature,The commercial dichloromethaneoften contains stabilizer in order
to prevent decomposition.
Usage:
Dichloromethane has strong solubility and notoxicity,used formanufacturing safety film and orthocarbonate and use
for solvent ofpaint,cleaner for metal, gas-fog spray agents,polyurethane foamingagent,mold-release agent,paint
remover.Dichloromethane is also use in themanufacture of photographic film and has been used to remove caffeine
fromcoffee.also approved for use as a postharvest fumigant for grains andstrawberries and as a degreening agent
for citrus fruit.
