Ethylene Gas
MSDS
Ethylene is a chemical compound that is highly flammable, non-toxic, non-corrosive, colorless, and odorless in its pure form. It has a boiling point of -103.7°C. Ethylene is mainly derived from natural gas, which is available underground and under the seabed. It is separated during the steam cracking process.
Ethylene is available in different purity grades and concentrations to meet the specific requirements of diverse industries. Axcel Gases utilizes in-house laboratory equipment to check the level of purity and concentrations of Ethylene gas. The gas is primarily used in the polymerization process to produce polyethylene, a common plastic used in various types and grades.
The uses of Ethylene gas include:
1. Polymerization Agent: Ethylene is used as a key component in the production of polyethylene, which is widely used in the manufacturing of plastic products.
2. Production of Ethylene Oxide: Ethylene is also used in the production of ethylene oxide, a chemical that is further utilized in the manufacture of various products such as solvents, detergents, and plastics.
3. Production of Ethylene Glycol: Ethylene is involved in the production of ethylene glycol, which serves as an antifreeze agent in the automobile industry.
4. Fruit Ripening Agent: Ethylene gas is used as a ripening agent for fruits. It helps accelerate the ripening process, enabling fruits to reach optimal ripeness for consumption.
5. Gas Welding: Ethylene, when mixed with oxygen in specific ratios, is used in gas welding processes.
6. Calibration Gas Mixture: Ethylene gas, when mixed with an inert carrier gas, can be used as a calibration gas mixture. This mixture is employed to check and calibrate laboratory or research-grade instruments.
