Primary Use
Monomer for chlorotrifluoroethylene resins
Chlorotrifluoroethene is a colorless, flammable gas with a faint ethereal odor, shipped as a liquefied gas under pressure. It is very toxic by inhalation and can asphyxiate by displacing air; contact with the liquid may cause frostbite, and containers may violently rupture under heat.
