METHYL CHLOROFORM Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Methyl chloroform, also known as 1,1,1-trichloroethane, is a colorless liquid with the chemical formula C₂H₃Cl₃, used in various industrial applications as a solvent and degreaser. It is employed in the cleaning of metal parts, electronics, and as a component in aerosol formulations. Methyl chloroform is also used in the production of adhesives, coatings, and as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals. Despite its utility, methyl chloroform is highly toxic and poses significant health risks if inhaled or ingested. It is also a potent ozone-depleting substance. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage.
