    Perchloroethylene (known in the industry as "perc") is the most commonly used solvent, although alternative solvents such as hydrocarbons, and supercritical CO 2 are also used. Most natural fibers can be washed in water but some synthetics (e.g., viscose ) react poorly with water and should be dry cleaned if possible. [ 1 ]
