Ethylene Gas Cylinder
Product Introduction
ethylene (H2C=CH2), the simplest of the organic compounds known as alkenes, which contain carbon-carbon double bonds. It is a colourless, flammable gas having a sweet taste and odour. Natural sources of ethylene include both natural gas and petroleum; it is also a naturally occurring hormone in plants, in which it inhibits growth and promotes leaf fall, and in fruits, in which it promotes ripening. Ethylene is an important industrial organic chemical.
Applications
Ethylene is the starting material for the preparation of a number of two-carbon compounds including ethanol (industrial alcohol), ethylene oxide (converted to ethylene glycol for antifreeze and polyester fibres and films), acetaldehyde (converted to acetic acid), and vinyl chloride (converted to polyvinyl chloride). In addition to these compounds, ethylene and benzene combine to form ethylbenzene, which is dehydrogenated to styrene for use in the production of plastics and synthetic rubber.Ethylene is a basic chemical raw material for the synthesis of fibers, synthetic rubber, synthetic plastics (polyethylene and polyvinyl chloride), and synthetic ethanol (alcohol). It is also used to manufacture vinyl chloride, styrene, ethylene oxide, acetic acid, acetaldehyde, explosives, and can be used as a ripening agent for fruits and vegetables. It is a proven plant hormone. It is also a pharmaceutical intermediate! Plays a crucial role in the pharmaceutical industry!Ethylene is one of the largest chemical products in the world, and the ethylene industry is the core of the petrochemical industry. Ethylene products account for more than 75% of petrochemical products and play an important role in the national economy. Ethylene production has been regarded as one of the important indicators to measure a country's level of petrochemical development in the world.
