Usage

General Description

1,1,1,3-Tetrachloro-propane is a synthetic chemical compound that is primarily used as an intermediate in organic chemical synthesis, as well as a solvent and degreasing agent for metal surfaces. It is a colorless liquid with a strong odor, and is highly insoluble in water. Due to its potential environmental and health hazards, it is considered a volatile organic compound (VOC) and is regulated as a hazardous air pollutant. Exposure to 1,1,1,3-Tetrachloro-propane can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system, as well as more severe health effects including liver and kidney damage. It has been designated as a Substance of Very High Concern (SVHC) under the European Union's REACH regulation, and is subject to strict handling and regulatory controls.
