Suitable antifreeze engine coolant, or engine coolant, is a colored liquid mixed with water to help regulate your engine at low or high temperatures. As the outside temperature changes from hot to cold coolant is pumped throughout the engine block to maintain an even operating temperature. However, antifreeze goes beyond temperature regulation. In addition to maintaining proper fluid levels, proper […]
What are the production process of ethylene glycol?
Ethylene oxide production In this initial stage, ethylene and oxides are injected together into a multi-tube reactor, which forms ethylene oxides (EO). This reaction is exothermic, carried out in fixed beds in reactor tubes, usually in the gas phase (using a silver catalyst supported on alumina). Recovery of ethylene oxide The product obtained from the reactor is transferred to the […]
What are the uses of monoethylene glycol?
Ethylene glycol is an organic compound with the formula CH2OH (2). Ethylene glycol is mainly used as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester fibers and antifreeze formulations. The widespread use of this material as an antifreeze is based on its ability to lower the freezing point when combined with water. Monoethylene glycol is a useful industrial compound found […]
