Commentaires

Grâce à une combinaison de facteurs qui lui sont favorables en comparaison à d'autres solvants, notamment sa faible réactivité, sa non-inflammabilité, ses propriétés physiques et sa faible toxicité, le trichloro-1,1,1 éthane était largement utilisé en remplacement d'autres organochlorés plus toxiques et d'autres solvants inflammables. Mais il est en voie de bannissement car il contribue à la déplétion de la couche d'ozone; et il faut le remplacer.
