What is the difference between Ethane and EP Mix?
EP Mix is a mixture of ethane and propane used for the production of ethylene. Ethylene is then used to create polyethylene.
How ethylene can be converted into ethane?
Halogenation
How are plastic made?
Petroleum to PlasticsThe technological road from oil field to finished plastic product has numerous fascinating side trips. Here's the route taken in the petroleum-to-plastics process: 1. Petroleum is drilled and transported to a refinery.2. Crude oil and natural gas are refined into ethane, propane, hundreds of other petrochemical products and, of course, fuel for your car.3. Ethane and propane are "cracked" into ethylene and propylene, using high-temperature furnaces.4. Catalyst is combined with ethylene or propylene in a reactor, resulting in "fluff," a powdered material (polymer) resembling laundry detergent.5. Fluff is combined with additives in a continuous blender.6. Polymer is fed to an extruder where it is melted.7. Melted plastic is cooled then fed to a pelletizer that cuts the product into small pellets.8. Pellets are shipped to customers.9. Customers manufacture plastic products by using processes such as extrusion, injection molding, blow molding, etc.
Which has more atom's ethane or methane?
definitely ethane, although propane has even more, and butane has more than propane, etc.
What is the constituent element of propylene glycol?
Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol; Chemical formula C2H6O2) is an organic compound widely used as an automotive antifreeze and a precursor to polymers. In its pure form, it is an odorless, colorless, syrupy, sweet-tasting liquid. Ethylene glycol is toxic, and ingestion can result in death.
Plastics are made from what resource?
Crude oil>ethane/propane>ethylene/propylene>reacted fluff>formed in to pellets via extrusion process. (short version)
What is the difference between Ethane and EP Mix?
EP Mix is a mixture of ethane and propane used for the production of ethylene. Ethylene is then used to create polyethylene.
What is the common name of propene?
Propane is the common name---I have never heard of it called anything else. Natural gas contains propane, but there is typically more methane and ethane in natural gas than there is propane.
What is the difference between Ethane and Ethylene?
ethane is CH3-CH3, an alkane ethylene is CH2=CH2, an alkene.
Which is the compound of carbon and hydrogen?
There are many compounds containing Carbon and Hydrogen: * Methane (CH4) * Ethane (C2H6) * Propane (C3H8) * Ethylene (C2H4) * Acetylene (C2H2)
How ethylene can be converted into ethane?
Halogenation
Is Ethylene more volatile than Ethane or not?
Yes, predominately due to Ethylene's triple bond. The triple bond makes Ethylene more unstable than Ethane, therefore making Ethylene more volatile
