Effective January 1st 2024, we are changing the packaging for our current solvent products from amber glass bottles to galvanized steel bottles.
All solvent products purchased after January 1st 2024 will come in our new galvanized steel bottle with a PTFE sealed lid.
This change will promote safer shipping and handling and reduce the risk of product loss if the glass bottle were to break. The new PTFE sealed lid will ensure less product loss by preventing unwanted leakage.
The price of these products will not be increasing as a result of our new packaging.
Clean efficiently with high-quality solvents
Halogenated solvents offer unparalleled cleaning and degreasing power while being non-flammable and leaving behind no residue. Carefully produced through metal catalysed reactions between hydrocarbons and halogens in the gas phase, Fluorchem's performance solvents are high purity and high quality owing to tightly controlled production processes using pure precursors and intermediates. We offer a range of high performance halogenated solvents sold for commercial and industrial use.
Halogenated Organic Solvents
Tetrachloroethylene, also known as perchloroethylene is a popular solvent within the drycleaning and metal degreasing industries. It is non-flammable and dries quickly leaving no residue behind ensuring a clean finish.
Chloroform, also known as trichloromethane is a versatile solvent commonly used for synthetic rubbers, resins and waxes. Chloroform is produced at Fluorchem within a strictly controlled process to provide our consumers with high purity and high quality solvents for your application to ensure outstanding results.
Trichloroethylene is a versatile, common solvent used within many industries including drycleaning, metal cleaning, and refrigerant manufacturing. Trichloroethylene dries almost instantly and leaves no residue. It is also entirely non-flammable and will not burn.
HCFC-225cb, (Freon™ 225cb) known chemically as 1,3-Dichloro-1,1,2,2,3-pentafluoropropane is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon. It serves as powerful clean agent solvent functioning as a replacement for 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2-trifluoroethane. HCFC-225cb is no longer in production at Fluorchem in accordance with the Montreal Protocol on substances that deplete the ozone layer.
