Wego is a global supplier of Parachlorobenzotrifluoride (PCBTF)

Wego Chemical Group is a leading global supplier and distributor of low VOC organic compounds such as Parachlorobenzotrifluoride. It can be found under CAS # 98-56-6 or EINECS # 202-681-1, and has the molecluar formula C7H4ClF3. It is commonly referred to by its acronym, PCBTF, or alternatively by its less-known synonyms p-Chlorobenzotrifluoride, 4-Chlorobenzotrifluoride, or 1-Chloro-4-(Trifluoromethyl) Benzene.

PCBTF takes the appearance of a clear, colorless liquid, and emanates a strong Naphthalenic odor. It has a boiling point of 139?C and a freezing point of -33?C, and is slightly soluble in water (29 ppm at 23?C). PCBTF is widely produced for commercial industrial use. It is an equivalent product to those under trade names Oxsol 100, SMC Spec 900, and Miami Chemical PCBTF 9000. 

PCBTF's primary uses are as a solvent. It is widely stable in a variety of conditions. PCBTF has low parity, it is non reactive and non corrosive, and is hydrophobic. It does not undergo hydrolysis or dehydrochlorination. It is a low VOC organic compound, making it widely applicable in products geared toward the developed world that require low toxicity levels. It can be used as a solvent in many coatings products—including in low VOC polyurethane coatings and in paint coatings. It can also be used as a VOC exempt solvent in construction materials, adhesives, and sealants, including caulking. Further, PCBTF has applications in household and industrial cleaners and degreasers, where it is used to diminish VOC content, as well as in inks and digital inks, where it is used to dissolve ink. 

PCBTF can also be used as an intermediate in making other compounds. Most notably so, it is an intermediate in the manufacturing of pharmaceutical products and in agricultural products.
