A small amount is used as a blowing agent for specialty foam., Cis- and trans-isomers of 1, 2-dichloroethylene have had only limited use as solvents and chemical intermediates. Neither of the isomers has developed wide industrial usage in the USA partly because of their flammability., 2-Dichloroethylenes can be used as solvent for waxes, resins, and thermoplastics, for the extraction of oil and fats from fish and meat, for vapor degreasing, as surface cleaning agent, for the extraction of rubber, as foam blowing additive, as refrigerant, in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, and as source of HCl in silicone etching., 2-Dichloroethylenes, Due to its more favorable environmental and toxicological properties trans-1, 2-dichloroethylene is marketed as an alternative to methylene chloride, trichloroethylene, and n-propyl bromide in solvent applications. Its flammability is a disadvantage and hence nonflammable mixtures of trans-1, 2-dichloroethylene and hydrofluorocarbons have been developed., Trans-1, 2-DCE is used as a solvent for waxes, acetylcellulose, dyes, thermoplastics, fats, and phenols.

The isomers can be separated by fractional distillation., In the thermal dehydrochlorination of 1, 2-trichloroethane, the 1, 2-dichloroethylenes are obtained together with the 1, 1-isomer.
