Trichloroethylene, also known by its IUPAC name trichloroethene, is an ethylene molecule in which three of the four hydrogen atoms have been replaced with chlorines. It is a clear, nonflammable liquid with a slightly sweet odor. Although, Lab Grade chemicals possess reasonable purity but do not comply with any official standard for quality or purity like the ACS Grade, the USP Grade, or the FCC Grade. Our Lab Grade Trichloroethylene is recommended for educational institutes and research labs.
