For industrial buyers, selecting a solvent-grade chemical is not simply a matter of comparing purity and price. The more important questions are whether the material fits the existing process, whether it can maintain stable performance during continuous production, how much process adjustment is required, and whether supply can remain uninterrupted. AOLANSU supplies Industrial Grade 1,2-Dichloroethane for manufacturers that need a versatile chlorinated solvent and chemical intermediate with predictable physical properties.
Produced in China using controlled production and purification processes, the material is a colorless, transparent liquid with a mild sweet odor. With purity of ≥99.5%, stable density, a boiling point of approximately 83.5℃, and strong compatibility with many organic substances, it can be incorporated into different industrial processes without requiring major changes to existing equipment. AOLANSU also holds a hazardous chemicals business license and provides documentation for international industrial procurement.
Different factories use chlorinated solvents for different purposes, so the purchasing standard should be connected to the actual production process. For degreasing operations, evaporation behavior and solvency influence cleaning speed and residue control. For chemical synthesis, consistent composition helps maintain reaction repeatability. For VCM production, stable feedstock quality is important for continuous operation. This makes a balanced industrial-grade specification more practical for many large-volume applications than purchasing a higher specification that is unnecessary for the process.
Industrial Grade 1,2-Dichloroethane provides a combination of solvency, volatility, density, and chemical compatibility that can support these common manufacturing requirements. Its specification is controlled from production through final inspection, allowing buyers to establish a repeatable incoming-material standard for regular procurement.

For metal processors, the main requirement is often to remove oil and grease efficiently before subsequent machining, coating, plating, or assembly. The strong solvency of Industrial Grade 1,2-Dichloroethane allows it to dissolve many common processing oils and organic contaminants. Its volatility also supports processes where the cleaning medium needs to evaporate after treatment, helping manufacturers maintain a cleaner surface before the next production step.
In chemical manufacturing, 1,2-dichloroethane serves as an important feedstock for processes such as VCM production. Its physical properties make it suitable for controlled heating and downstream processing. For customers purchasing large quantities, consistent material specifications are particularly important because variations in feedstock can increase the difficulty of maintaining stable production conditions.
As an industrial solvent, it can dissolve or assist in processing various organic materials, including selected resins, rubber compounds, coatings, and other formulation components. This makes it useful when manufacturers need a solvent with strong dissolving capability and a relatively predictable evaporation profile.
The product can also be incorporated into selected extraction, separation, and intermediate-production processes. Its compatibility with many organic substances allows chemical manufacturers to use it as part of established processing systems where solvent recovery and controlled handling are already available.
Solvent selection should always be based on the actual process rather than choosing a material only by its unit price. Different solvents have different solvency, evaporation, compatibility, and process-control characteristics.
| Evaluation Factor | 1,2-Dichloroethane | Kerosene | Lower-Boiling General Solvents |
|---|---|---|---|
| Organic contaminant removal | Strong solvency for many organic materials | Good for heavy oils and greases | Varies by solvent type |
| Evaporation behavior | Relatively fast | Slow | Often faster |
| Residue after evaporation | Low when properly used | Higher oily residue may remain | Depends on formulation |
| Typical industrial role | Solvent, degreasing medium, chemical intermediate | Heavy-duty cleaning and oil removal | General cleaning or formulation |
| Process consideration | Requires controlled hazardous-chemical handling | Combustibility and residue require consideration | Selection depends on flash point and compatibility |
The comparison is intended for preliminary material selection only. Actual solvent compatibility should be verified through process testing, equipment evaluation, and the applicable safety documentation before production use.
A large Vietnamese plastics manufacturer specializing in PVC pipes and films has purchased Industrial Grade 1,2-Dichloroethane from AOLANSU in bulk for two years, with a monthly order volume of approximately 300 tons.
The company selected the material because its measured purity remained consistently above 99.6%, supporting stable VCM production. During peak production periods, scheduled supply helped the customer avoid raw-material interruptions. According to the customer's procurement feedback, changing suppliers also reduced raw-material procurement costs by approximately 6% compared with its previous source.
A Turkish metal-processing company uses the material for surface degreasing of automotive components. Before cooperation, the manufacturer experienced slow cleaning and residual contamination that affected subsequent processing quality.
After introducing the AOLANSU material into its cleaning process, the customer reported approximately 12% faster degreasing and no visible residue on treated parts. The improvement helped increase processing efficiency and product qualification performance, and the customer subsequently established a regular monthly purchasing schedule.
For high-consumption factories, procurement stability can have a greater effect on total operating cost than the initial solvent quotation. A supplier should therefore be evaluated according to product consistency, available production capacity, packaging compatibility, delivery reliability, and documentation support.
AOLANSU supports both trial evaluation and recurring industrial supply. Buyers can first verify the material against their existing process specifications and then establish a regular supply schedule based on monthly consumption. Bulk procurement can be coordinated with production and logistics plans to reduce the risk of unexpected raw-material shortages.
Industrial orders can be arranged using suitable chemical packaging according to order quantity and transportation requirements. Standard industrial packaging can be selected for conventional orders, while larger-volume customers can discuss IBC or other bulk transportation solutions with the AOLANSU sales team.
For international shipments, the required commercial and safety documentation can be prepared according to the destination and transportation method. Because this is a hazardous chemical, transportation and handling should always be arranged according to applicable dangerous-goods regulations and through appropriately qualified logistics providers.
For industrial buyers, the most useful quality-control approach is to connect laboratory testing with the specification required by the production line. AOLANSU performs batch inspection before shipment, with key parameters such as purity, appearance, density, and other applicable quality indicators checked according to the product specification.
COA and MSDS documentation can be supplied for customer review. This allows procurement and quality teams to compare the delivered material against their internal acceptance criteria and maintain traceability throughout regular purchasing.
1,2-Dichloroethane is a hazardous chemical and requires controlled handling. It should be stored in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from ignition sources, excessive heat, and incompatible substances. Containers should remain properly closed when not in use, and the storage area should have suitable emergency and spill-response provisions.
During operation, personnel should follow the applicable MSDS, workplace chemical-handling procedures, and local regulations. Appropriate protective equipment and engineering ventilation should be used to reduce exposure to vapors. Transportation should be conducted by qualified dangerous-goods logistics providers using packaging and procedures appropriate for the destination.
The specification is ≥99.5%, while actual batch testing often reaches approximately 99.6%–99.7%. The exact batch result can be confirmed through the corresponding COA before or after shipment.
