Latest Report 'China Ethylene Glycol Market Report, 2008-2009' Will Help You Understand the Ethylene Glycol Market

Posted on: Friday, 18 July 2008, 03:00 CDT

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/58f172/china_ethylene_gly) has announced the addition of the "China Ethylene Glycol Market Report, 2008-2009" report to their offering.

Skeleton Symbol: HO-CH2-CH2-OH Molecular Formula: C2H6O2

Relative Molecular Mass: 62.07 (According to the International Atomic Mass of 1997)

Properties:

Ethylene glycol is an odorless, colorless, syrupy liquid with a sweet taste. Its specific gravity is 1.1132, boiling point is 197.2(degree), freezing point is -12.6(degree), flash point is 116(degree), spontaneous ignition point is 412(degree), and the upper limit of the explosion limit is between 3.2% and 15.3% (volume). Ethylene glycol absorbs moisture, dissolves in water, ethanol, acetone and slightly dissolves in aether, and can reduce the freezing point of water by large extent.

Production:

Ethylene glycol is produced from ethylene, which is oxidated into epoxy ethane via activator silver salt. Epoxy ethane reacts with water to produce ethylene glycol.

Uses:

Ethylene glycol is mainly used as the raw material for polyester, solvent and antifreeze in engines. It can also be used in producing resin, plasticizer, cosmetic and dynamite, etc.

The report is based on data from China's National Bureau of Statistics, China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Association and China Customs and the research network of Beijing Compass-info. It analyzes the output, production capacity and price of ethylene glycol and the down-stream demand for ethylene glycol, and foretells the market trend in the future. The report can help you understand the ethylene glycol market and provides import decision support to enterprises and research institutions intending to enter the market.
