Introduction & Uses
DCP, Dichloropropane, 1,2-Dichloropropene
DCP is used as a dry cleaning fluid – in some countries it is used as substitute to TCE (trichloroethylene).
DCP is also used as a degreaser and processed to make other chloronated chemicals. DCP is also a solvent for organic synthesis.
Source
Product of ROMANIA.
Valetime have worked closely with a major Chinese chemical distributor to source key chemicals produced in Romania that are required in China. Through associate companies in Romania, we now have close links to chemical manufacturers and producers. This opportunity has given us access to a number of new chemical products.
