Ethylene oxide, also known as ethylene oxide and oxane, is a toxic, flammable and explosive organic chemical with a molecular formula of C2H4O, which is one of the simplest epoxides. It is a gas at room temperature and pressure, with a sweet smell [4]. When it is below 10.7°C, it is a colorless and easy to flow liquid with an odor of ether. Its vapor is irritating to the eye and nasal mucosa. It is miscible with water, ethanol, alcohol, and ether. Its chemical properties are very active. It can react with many compounds to form an explosive mixture with air. The explosion limit is 3%-100% (volume).
Ethylene oxide is widely used in the chemical industry, especially as an intermediate to produce a variety of chemicals, such as ethylene glycol, surfactants, detergents, etc. In industrial production, ethylene oxide is used to produce ethylene glycol, polycarboxylic acid water reducing agent monomers, synthetic detergents, nonionic surfactants, antifreeze agents, polyethers and ethylene glycol products. The vast majority of ethylene oxide production is prepared through analysis purification and purification of ethylene and oxygen, while ethylene and oxygen can also be prepared into ethylene glycol. Currently, about 60% of ethylene oxide devices in China are co-produced with ethylene glycol devices. There are two main preparation methods for ethylene oxide, direct oxidation method of ethylene and chlorohydrin method.
