Frequently Asked Questions

What is the full form of MDC in chemicals? Is it the same as dichloromethane?

MDC stands for Methylene Di Chloride. Methylene chloride, dichloromethane and DCM are all names for the same solvent — CAS 75-09-2. It is a clear, colourless liquid with a sweet chloroform-like odour.

What is the CAS number and HSN code of methylene chloride (MDC)?

The CAS number of Methylene Di Chloride is 75-09-2 and its HSN code is 2903 12 00. Both appear on our TDS and despatch documents.

What is the specification of technical grade MDC?

We supply stabilised Technical Grade MDC with a minimum 99.95% assay by GC, made by TGV SRAAC. Key limits from the manufacturer's specification: moisture 75 ppm max, chloroform 50 ppm max, carbon tetrachloride 4 ppm max, non-volatile matter 10 ppm max, stabiliser 25–40 ppm. The full 12-parameter TDS is available on this page.

Is MDC flammable?

No. MDC is non-flammable, but it forms toxic fumes on heating and is a suspected carcinogen (H351), so handle it with good ventilation and appropriate PPE. It boils at 39.6 °C, which makes it a fast-evaporating process solvent.

Who supplies methylene chloride (MDC) in Chennai, and in what packaging?

We stock MDC at our Redhills, Chennai warehouse and dispatch across South India, typically ex-stock to 5 working days. Packaging options are 250 kg MS barrels, 1000 L IBC tanks and bulk ISO tanker.

What is the price of MDC per kg in Chennai?

MDC prices move with the market, so we quote against current stock rather than publishing a rate. Order sizes depend on packaging and current stock. Call or WhatsApp +91 86087 80096 for today's price and availability.
