General description: Dichloromethane has been tested as a solvent medium for the dipyridine-chromium(VI) oxide. Solubility was reported to be 12.5g/100ml. Role of the quantity of TiO2 loading on activated carbon support on its photodecomposition has been investigated.

Application: Dichloromethane may be used as solvent for the preparation of stock solutions of the carotenoids. It may be employed as solvent in the synthesis of polylactide-based (PLA) thin films.
