Usos documentados

• The main use of trichloroethylene is in the vapor degreasing of metal parts. Trichloroethylene is used in consumer products such as typewriter correction fluids, paint removers/strippers, adhesives, spot removers, and rug-cleaning fluids.
• Used extensively form 1920s through 1970s as a degreaser in metal fabrication, but use declined because of concerns about environmental pollution and cancer; TCE used in about 50% of vapor degreasing in 1970s and about 33% in 1980s. Increased EPA regulations in 1990s further limited its use. Other industries using TCE: dry cleaning, textile, electronics, leather, and rubber; Also used in adhesives, drugs, paints, and inks; [Reference #2]
• Banned in the US in 1977 as a pet food additive, grain fumigant, wound disinfectant, obstetrical anesthetic, and extractant to make decaffeinated coffee; [ATSDR ToxProfile] In US industries, the process use of TCE ended in the mid-1980s; [PMID 24224613]
