Vinylidene chloride

Description:
Vinylidene chloride, also known as 1,1-dichloroethylene, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C2H2Cl2. It is a colorless, flammable liquid with a sweet odor, commonly used in the production of polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), a polymer known for its barrier properties against moisture and gases. Vinylidene chloride is characterized by its double bond between the two carbon atoms, which contributes to its reactivity and ability to undergo polymerization. The compound is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. Due to its chemical structure, it can participate in various reactions, including addition and substitution reactions. Safety considerations are important when handling vinylidene chloride, as it is classified as a potential carcinogen and can pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact. Proper ventilation and protective equipment are recommended during its use in industrial applications. Overall, vinylidene chloride plays a significant role in the production of specialty plastics and coatings.
