  2. 1,2-Dichloroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-Dichloroethane

    The chemical compound 1,2-dichloroethane, commonly known as ethylene dichloride (EDC), is a chlorinated hydrocarbon. It is a colourless liquid with a chloroform -like odour . The most common use of 1,2-dichloroethane is in the production of vinyl chloride , which is used to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipes, furniture and automobile ...

  3. Oxychlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxychlorination

    Oxychlorination is employed in the conversion of ethylene into vinyl chloride. In the first step in this process, ethylene undergoes oxychlorination to give ethylene chloride: CH 2 =CH 2 + 2 HCl + ½ O 2 → ClCH 2 CH 2 Cl + H 2 O. Oxychlorination is of special importance in the making of 1,2-dichloroethane, which is then converted into vinyl ...

  4. 1,2-Dichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-dichloroethylene

    1,2-Dichloroethylene or 1,2-DCE is the name for a pair of organochlorine compounds with the molecular formula C 2 H 2 Cl 2.The two compounds are isomers, each being colorless liquids with a sweet odor.

  5. Chlorine production - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine_production

    Non condensible gases and remaining chlorine gas are vented off as part of the pressure control of the liquefaction systems. These gases are routed to a gas scrubber, producing sodium hypochlorite, or used in the production of hydrochloric acid (by combustion with hydrogen) or ethylene dichloride (by reaction with ethylene).

  6. Ethylene chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_chloride

    Ethylene chloride is a chemical name that can refer to either of the following compounds: 1,2-dichloroethane: formula C 2 H 4 Cl 2: vinyl chloride: formula C 2 H 3 Cl

  7. Triton X-100 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triton_X-100

    Triton X-100 is soluble at 25 °C in water, toluene, xylene, trichloroethylene, ethylene glycol, ethyl ether, ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, and ethylene dichloride. Triton X-100 is insoluble in kerosene, mineral spirits, and naphtha, unless a coupling agent like oleic acid is used.

  8. Scientific modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_modelling

    In any case, users of a model need to understand the assumptions made that are pertinent to its validity for a given use. Building a model requires abstraction. Assumptions are used in modelling in order to specify the domain of application of the model. For example, the special theory of relativity assumes an inertial frame of reference.

  9. Solvent bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_bonding

    Solvent bonding (also called solvent welding) is not a method of adhesive bonding (the final result does not rely on the adhesion of another substance [adhesive] and its cohesion between two substrates), but rather a method of fusing two thermoplastic plastics.
