Controlled applications

Use only where legally permitted.

Chemical processing

Process solvent or reaction medium in engineered, closed manufacturing systems with exposure controls.

Controlled extraction

Extraction service only in validated industrial processes where the use is authorised and suitable recovery controls are installed.

Pharmaceutical processing

Appropriate documented grades may be used in authorised pharmaceutical processes with residual-solvent and occupational controls.

Adhesive processing

Selected processing applications only when permitted by law and conducted in properly controlled industrial equipment.

Coating processing

Selected manufacturing operations only; this does not include uncontrolled consumer paint or coating removal.

Laboratory use

Authorised professional laboratory use with fume extraction, exposure assessment, compatible storage and hazardous-waste controls.

Not an approval for any application. Listing an application does not establish that it is legally permitted or technically suitable at the customer's location.

Serious health hazard

Prevent vapour exposure.

Methylene Chloride vapour can accumulate rapidly—especially in enclosed, confined or low areas—and can cause central-nervous-system depression, cardiac effects, loss of consciousness or death. Metabolism can increase carbon monoxide in the body. Repeated or prolonged exposure is associated with cancer and liver effects.

  • Use closed systems and effective local exhaust wherever possible.
  • Complete a competent exposure assessment and workplace monitoring programme.
  • Use appropriate respiratory and personal protection selected under a compliant protection programme by qualified safety professionals.
  • Never enter or use Methylene Chloride in a confined space without a formal permit, atmospheric controls and rescue programme.
  • Consult the current manufacturer SDS before handling, storage, transport, spill response or disposal.
