About Trichloroethylene, for spectroscopy

Trichloroethylene is a specialty grade solvent in Spectroscopy grade carrying the CAS registry number 79-01-6. With the molecular formula C2HCl3, it has a molar mass of 131.38 g/mol. Systematically, it is named 1,1,2-trichloroethene. Common synonyms include Trichloroethene and Ethinyl trichloride.

It is supplied as a liquid. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. Under GHS it is labelled “Danger”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

It is commonly used for UV-Vis and IR spectroscopy, spectrophotometric blanks, sample dissolution and electronics and thin films. It is used across academic and industrial research, pharmaceutical manufacturing and electronics and semiconductors.

Standard pack sizes are 500 mL, 1 L, 2.5 L and 25 L, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
