High Purity and Versatile Applications

MDC is valued in the chemical industry for its exceptional purity (99.9%), making it suitable for demanding applications such as pharmaceutical synthesis, paint formulations, and metal cleaning. Its ability to dissolve a wide range of substances enhances both process efficiency and product quality.

Safety and Handling Precautions

As MDC is classified as toxic and suspected to be carcinogenic, its crucial to handle with proper ventilation and personal protective equipment. Despite being non-flammable, it can be harmful if inhaled and poses risks to aquatic environments, underscoring the need for responsible storage and transportation.

Storage and Stability

Methylene Dichloride remains stable for up to two years when stored in tightly sealed containers in cool, dry, and ventilated areas. Adhering to these guidelines preserves product integrity and minimizes safety risks during storage and use.

FAQs of Methylene Dichloride (MDC):

Q: How should Methylene Dichloride be safely handled and stored in industrial settings?

A: Methylene Dichloride should be handled using adequate ventilation and personal protective equipment. Store it in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from incompatible substances, to ensure safety and product stability.

Q: What are the main industrial uses of MDC (Dichloromethane)?

A: MDC is primarily used as a solvent in pharmaceuticals, paint removers, and metal cleaning processes. Its high purity and effective solvency make it a preferred choice in these applications.

Q: When is MDC typically utilized in pharmaceutical processes?

A: MDC is commonly employed during the extraction and purification of active pharmaceutical ingredients due to its ability to dissolve various organic compounds, improving yield and product quality.

Q: Where can MDC be transported and what precautions should be observed during shipment?

A: MDC is exported and supplied in HDPE drums, IBCs, and tankers, commonly from India. Since it is a Class 6.1 toxic substance (UN 1593), transport must comply with safety regulations, using appropriate labeling and protective measures to prevent exposure.

Q: What is the process for using MDC as a paint remover?

A: To use MDC as a paint remover, apply the liquid (under controlled conditions) to painted surfaces, allowing it to penetrate and break down the coatings for easy removal. Ensure adequate ventilation and protective gear during use.

Q: What benefits does MDC offer over other solvents in industrial applications?

A: MDCs fast evaporation, high solvency power, and neutral pH (6.5-7.5) provide efficient operational results with minimal residue. Its versatility streamlines processes across paint, pharmaceutical, and metal cleaning industries.
