👉 The tr-fluid, also known as the trichloroethylene (TCE) or trichloromethane fluid, is a volatile organic compound (VOC) widely used as a solvent in various industrial and laboratory applications. It is a colorless liquid with a strong, pungent odor and is highly soluble in water but insoluble in organic solvents. The tr-fluid is commonly employed for cleaning, degreasing, and extracting compounds from materials due to its effectiveness and low cost. However, it poses significant environmental and health risks, including groundwater contamination and potential carcinogenic effects, leading to its regulation and phased-out use in many regions.
