Prop 65 Ethylene Oxide Texas (1)

Ethylene Oxide

• Ethylene oxide is an essential industrial
  chemical. So it stored as a liquid at atmospheric
  pressure and room temperature, it is a gas that
  is flammable. This compound is used as an
  intermediate in the production of ethylene
  glycol,

2

• which subsequently is converted to polyester
  fibers utilized in rugs and clothing, or to
  polyethylene terephthalate resin for bottles and
  packaging film. Ethylene glycol is widely
  utilized as an automotive antifreeze, and it
  might be used for manufacturing fiberglass.

• An important, although small usage of Prop 65
  Ethylene Oxide Texas can be for the sterilization
  of supplies and foods. Signals of overexposure
  include dizziness and headache, and vulnerability
  results in seizure, convulsions, and coma.

• This technique has been the way of production of
  ethylene oxide industrially. - CH2OHCH2Cl OH
  C2H4O Cl H2O - Notice ethylene chlorohydrin
  can be prepared by the actions of acid on
  ethylene. Ethylene oxide is a gas at room average
  temperature.

5

• As follows, A molar excess of water can be used
  to acquire ethylene glycol C2H4O H2O
  HOCH2CH2OH - sorts of polyethylene oxide or
  polyethylene glycol, which are polymers of
  ethylene glycol, are formed as components of the
  response. The amount of polymerization increases
  as the percentage of water is reduced H2O HOnH
  - For example, under the conditions generates
  triethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, etc.

• Similarly, reaction with ammonia may yield
  ethanolamine, diethanolamine, or triethanolamine.
  Ethylene oxide is also important from the
  production of surfactants along with other
  detergents, in a process called ethoxylation.

7

• Scientific Laboratory in Texas. One class of
  ethylene oxide derivatives which has attracted
  much scientific attention consisting of the crown
  ethers, that are cyclic oligomers of ethylene
  oxide.
