Tetrachloroethylene is a colorless, volatile, nonflammable, liquid, chlorinated hydrocarbon with an ether-like odor that may emit toxic fumes of phosgene when exposed to sunlight or flames. Tetrachloroethylene is mainly used as a cleaning solvent in dry cleaning and textile processing and in the manufacture of fluorocarbons. Exposure to this substance irritates the upper respiratory tract and eyes and causes neurological effects as well as kidney and liver damage. Tetrachloroethylene is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen and may be linked to an increased risk of developing skin, colon, lung, esophageal, and urogenital tract cancer as well as lymphosarcoma and leukemia.

1, tetrachloroethylene is widely used, mainly used as metal degreasing solvent, but also used as an insect repellent. Tetrachloroethylene can be used as fat extraction agent, fire extinguishing agent and smoke agent, and can also be used in the synthesis of trichloroethylene and fluorinated organic compounds.
2, widely used as natural and synthetic fiber dry cleaning agent. It is also used as degreasing detergent for metals, general solvent and intermediate for organic synthesis.
3, used as a standard material for chromatographic analysis.
4, for adhesive repellent, fat extraction agent, also used in organic synthesis.
The product is flammable, toxic, irritating, generally will not burn, but long time exposure to open flame and high temperature can still burn. High thermal decomposition produces toxic corrosive gases. It can react with active metal powder (such as magnesium, aluminum, etc.) and cause decomposition. In case of high heat can occur violent decomposition, causing container rupture or explosion accident.
