Frequently asked questions
What is methylene chloride (dichloromethane) and where is it used?

Methylene chloride (dichloromethane, CH2Cl2; also known as freon 30) is a colourless, transparent chlorinated solvent. It is used in the production of chemical fibres, photographic and motion-picture film, plastics, perfumes and rubber technical products; in surface degreasing in metallurgy and the radio industry; and as a polyurethane foam solvent in the paint and varnish industry.

In what packaging is methylene chloride supplied, and is it ex-stock?

Methylene chloride is supplied in steel drums, rail tank cars and tanker vehicles. KORKİMYA delivers ex-stock from its Istanbul warehouse, with fast dispatch from local stock rather than depending on imports from China. Drums are stored in unheated warehouses or under canopies at a temperature not exceeding 50 degrees C.

Is methylene chloride KKDIK registered and is an SDS provided?

Yes. The methylene chloride supplied by KORKİMYA is KKDIK registered and a current Safety Data Sheet (SDS) is provided with every shipment. The product has a minimum purity of 99.7% methylene chloride and is transported by road and rail under UN 1593.

How can I request a sample and a price quote?

You can request a free sample and a price quote for methylene chloride. KORKİMYA invoices in TRY; the sample, certificate of analysis (CoA) and quotation are provided by KORKİMYA on request.
