Why is dichloromethane used as a solvent?
2025,10,22DCM dichloromethane (also called methylene chloride), this colorless, volatile liquid with a chloroform-like, sweet odor is widely used as a solvent. Although it is not miscible with water, it is slightly polar and miscible with many organic solvents. Dichloromethane solvent is used in industrial and research applications.Why is dichloromethane used as a solvent?
- Balanced Polarity: DCM Dichloromethane is a moderately polar aprotic solvent. This balance makes it more versatile than highly polar solvents (e.g., water) or nonpolar solvents (e.g., hexane).
- Low Boiling Point: With a boiling point of ~39.6°C, DCM evaporates quickly at room temperature.
- Immiscibility with Water: DCM Dichloromethane liquid is only slightly soluble in water, forming distinct layers when mixed.
- Low Viscosity: Its low viscosity ensures it spreads easily and penetrates materials (e.g., paint layers).
