Product Information
Dichloroethane is an organic compound, chemical formula C2H4Cl2, molecular weight 98.97, is a halogenated hydrocarbon. Dichloroethane has two isomers,1, 1-dichloroethane and 1, 2-dichloroethane, which are generally referred to as 1, 2-dichloroethane unless otherwise specified. Dichloroethane is colorless or light yellow transparent liquid, insoluble in water, it is colorless at room temperature with chloroform-like odor liquid, toxic, with potential carcinogenicity, mainly used as an intermediate in the production process of vinyl chloride (polyvinyl chloride monomer), synthesis is often used as a solvent, can be added to leaded gasoline to improve octane number. It is also used as a solvent for wax, fat, rubber and grain insecticide. Possible solvent alternatives include 1, 3-dioxane and toluene.

Operation and Storage
Ampoule bottle outside ordinary wooden case; Threaded glass bottles, iron lid pressed glass bottles, plastic bottles or metal barrels (cans) outside ordinary wooden cases.
It has antioxidant properties. Does not corrode metal. Dichloroethane vapor and air can form explosive mixtures. In case of high heat, open flame, strong oxidant, it may cause the danger of combustion and explosion.
Precautions for storage and transportation: Store in a cool and ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat. Warehouse temperature should not exceed 30℃. Store separately from oxidants. The lighting, ventilation and other facilities in the storage room should be explosion-proof, and the switch should be located outside the warehouse. Equipped with the corresponding variety and quantity of fire equipment. Technical measures for fire and explosion protection should be taken in storage of tanks. Do not use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to spark. When filling, pay attention to the flow rate (no more than 3m/s), and there is a grounding device to prevent static accumulation. When handling, light loading and unloading should be done to prevent damage to packaging and containers. The transport shall run on the prescribed route and shall not stop in the middle. ERG Guidelines: 130 ERG Guidelines Classification: Flammable liquids (non-polar/immiscible with water/harmful).
Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat. The temperature of the reservoir should not exceed 30℃. Keep the container sealed. It should be stored separately from oxidizers, acids, alkalis and edible chemicals, and should not be mixed. Explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities are adopted. Do not use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to spark. The storage area should be equipped with leak emergency treatment equipment and suitable containment materials. The "five-double" management system for extremely toxic substances should be strictly implemented.
