2-chloroethanol is part of Aether's fine & specialty chemicals portfolio and is a basic solvent. Multiple applications as an advanced intermediate for the production of dyes, agrochemicals, plastics and pharmaceuticals.

Methyl Chloride is a clear, colorless, nonflammable liquid that has a mild odor. Its main use is as a chemical intermediate in the manufacture of hydrochlorofluorocarbon 22 (chlorodifluoromethane, or ‘HCFC-22’), which is primarily a refrigerant and feedstock for fluoropolymers. Chloroform also has minor applications as a process solvent in the production of some pharmaceuticals and agricultural products.

PT Asahimas Chemical (ASC) Ethylene Dichloride (EDC) was once called Dutch oil in honor of the Dutch scientists who first synthesized this compound from ethylene and chlorine gasses in the late 18th century. Nowadays it is mainly used to produce vinyl chloride monomer (VCM), the major raw material for PVC production. It is also used as an intermediate for other organic chemical compounds and as a solvent.

Baochemicals Methylene Chloride is used as an industrial or laboratory solvent. It can be found in aerosols and/or pesticides.
