Also known as methylene chloride, dichloromethane is a colourless and volatile solution with a characteristic sweet aroma. Dichloromethane is commonly used as a solvent because, while it may not be miscible with water, it can be mixed with a variety of organic solvents.
Dichloromethane may not be as toxic as more complex chlorohydrocarbons, but its high volatility means it’s not without its risks. Safe handling procedures must always be followed. Please refer to our MSDS sheet, which can be downloaded from our website.
