Short Info

Chlorure de méthylène

Product Description

Methylene chloride from China, an industrial solvent and auxiliary blowing agent used in various manufacturing processes including polyurethane foam production. This volatile chlorinated solvent evaporates during foam processing, contributing to cell formation alongside CO2 generated by the water-isocyanate reaction. West African foam manufacturers use methylene chloride when additional blowing capacity is needed to achieve lower-density foams with specific softness and comfort characteristics. The material also serves as a powerful solvent and degreasing agent for industrial cleaning applications, paint stripping, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. Note: Methylene chloride is classified as a dangerous good and potential carcinogen requiring stringent safety measures during handling and use. Adequate ventilation, personal protective equipment, and compliance with occupational exposure limits are essential for protecting worker health. Environmental regulations increasingly restrict methylene chloride use in many applications, driving adoption of alternative technologies where feasible.
