Halogenated Hydrocarbons (halocarbons) refer to hydrocarbon derivatives containing leastwise one halogen atom. Chlorine, followed by fluorine, is the most popular halogen; and bromine iodine, by themselves or combined, can be met in the chemical structure of these types of hydrocarbons as well. The examples include vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), perchloroethylene (PCE), ethylene dichloride (EDC), 1,2-dichloroethane (DCA), and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), among others.
Some Halogenated Hydrocarbon species occur in nature, though many are manmade as industrially important products. They are also synthesized unintentionally as byproducts in the time of industrial chemical processes, or during waste incineration and incidental fires resulting in the creation of detrimental halogenated dioxins (including TCDD) and furans. Halogenated Hydrocarbons are utilized as solvents, insecticides and herbicides, plasticizers, elastomers’ ingredients, glues and sealants, refrigerant agents, etc. Owing to their stability and persistent nature, Halogenated Hydrocarbons’ production and use is restricted.
The research reports under this Catalogue are a vital source of granular information on the Halogenated Hydrocarbons Markets – global, regional and national. The research reports deliver comprehensive data (historical, current and forecast) depicting capacities, supply/demand, trade, and average prices. Essential knowledge with respect to Halogenated Hydrocarbons suppliers and makers is also highlighted in the research reports.
