What is 1,2-Dichloroethane?

1,2-Dichloroethane (C₂H₄Cl₂), also known as ethylene dichloride, is a clear, colorless liquid with a sweet odor widely used as an intermediate in the production of vinyl chloride, which is the key raw material for polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It also serves as a solvent in the manufacturing of adhesives, coatings, and cleaning agents. Due to its chemical stability and effectiveness as an industrial solvent, 1,2-Dichloroethane is an essential compound in the chemical and polymer industries, though it requires careful handling because of its toxic and volatile nature.
