Number: 111-15-9. A clear liquid with an ether-like odor. It is
used as a solvent, in automobile lacquers to prevent evaporation
and create a high gloss, and in printing inks, photographic
films, lacquers and nail polish. Chemical formula = C6H12O3.
Molecular weight = 132.16 g/mol.
Also known as 1,2-Dichloroethene (Total). CAS Number: 540-59-0.
It is a highly flammable, colorless liquid with a sharp,
ether-like odor. There are two forms of 1,2-dichloroethene; one
form is called cis-1,2-dichloroethene and the other is called
trans-1,2-dichloroethene. This is the combination of those forms
in a mixture.
1,2-Dichloroethene is used most often to produce solvents and in
chemical mixtures.
