Application

1. Dry cleaning: PCE is widely used in the dry cleaning industry. Due to its good solubility and cleaning performance, it can effectively remove oil stains and dirt on clothing, making clothing cleaner and neater. However, in recent years, due to environmental and health considerations, the dry cleaning machine industry is gradually turning to the use of more environmentally friendly alternatives.

2. Metal cleaning: The solubility of tetrachloroethylene makes it an important solvent in the metal cleaning industry. It can dissolve and remove grease, wax and dirt on the metal surface, and is used for cleaning industrial parts and metal products.

3. Chemical industry: chemical tetrachloroethylene also has certain applications in the chemical industry. It can be used as a solvent and intermediate in some chemical reactions for the preparation of other compounds, such as nitrides, coatings, resins, etc.

4. Pharmaceuticals and hygiene products: tetrachloroethylene is used as a raw material and solvent in some pharmaceuticals and hygiene products. For example, it can prepare intermediates for certain drugs, clean medical equipment, remove bacteria, etc.
