    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-dichloroethylene

    1,2-Dichloroethylene or 1,2-DCE is the name for a pair of organochlorine compounds with the molecular formula C 2 H 2 Cl 2. The two compounds are isomers, each being colorless liquids with a sweet odor. It can exist as either of two geometric isomers, cis-1,2-dichloroethene or trans-1,2-dichloroethene, but is often used as a mixture of the two ...

    Bioremediation usually entails reductive dechlorination under anaerobic conditions by Dehalococcoides spp. [39] Under aerobic conditions, degradation may occur via co-metabolism by Pseudomonas sp. [40] Products of biological reductive dechlorination include trichloroethylene, cis-1,2-dichloroethylene, vinyl chloride, ethylene and chloride.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-Dichloroethane

    The most common use of 1,2-dichloroethane is in the production of vinyl chloride, which is used to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, furniture and automobile upholstery, wall coverings, housewares, and automobile parts. [4] 1,2-Dichloroethane is also used generally as an intermediate for other organic chemical compounds, and as a solvent.

  6. Dichloroethene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dichloroethene

    Dichloroethene or dichloroethylene, often abbreviated as DCE, can refer to any one of several isomeric forms of the organochloride with the molecular formula C 2 H 2 Cl 2: There are three isomers: 1,1-Dichloroethylene; 1,2-Dichloroethylene (E and Z)

  7. 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane

    1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane was used in large amounts to produce other chemicals like trichloroethylene, tetrachloroethylene, and 1,2-dichloroethylene. [6] Because of its possible carcinogen effects on humans, the production of 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane has decreased significantly and is no longer widely used as an end-product. [7]

  8. 1,1-Dichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,1-Dichloroethylene

    1,1-Dichloroethylene, commonly called vinylidene chloride or 1,1-DCE, is an organochloride with the molecular formula CCl 2 CH 2.It is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor. Like most chlorocarbons, it is poorly soluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. 1,1-DCE was the precursor to the original clingwrap, Saran, for food, but this application has been phased

    Some studies have shown that although DDE levels have fallen dramatically, eggshell thickness remains 10–12 percent thinner than before DDT was first used. [ 15 ] Some studies have indicated that DDE is an endocrine disruptor [ 16 ] and contributes to breast cancer , but more recent studies provide strong evidence that there is no ...
