2. Ethylene glycol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol

   Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an organic compound (a vicinal diol [7]) with the formula (CH2OH)2. It is mainly used for two purposes: as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester fibers and for antifreeze formulations. It is an odorless, colorless, flammable, viscous liquid.

3. Cyanoacrylate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanoacrylate

   Cyanoacrylate. Structure of the backbone of a cyanoacrylate polymer. Cyanoacrylates are a family of strong fast-acting adhesives with industrial, medical, and household uses. They are derived from ethyl cyanoacrylate and related esters. The cyanoacrylate group in the monomer rapidly polymerizes in the presence of water to form long, strong chains.

4. Polyethylene terephthalate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate

   Polyethylene terephthalate (or poly (ethylene terephthalate), PET, PETE, or the obsolete PETP or PET-P), is the most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family and is used in fibres for clothing, containers for liquids and foods, and thermoforming for manufacturing, and in combination with glass fibre for engineering resins.

5. Ethyl group - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethyl_group

   Ethyl group (highlighted blue) as part of a molecule, as the ethyl radical, and in the compounds ethanol, bromoethane, ethyl acetate, and ethyl methyl ether. In organic chemistry, an ethyl group (abbr. Et) is an alkyl substituent with the formula −CH2CH3, derived from ethane (C2H6). Ethyl is used in the International Union of Pure and Applied ...

6. Ethylene-vinyl acetate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene-vinyl_acetate

   Ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), also known as poly (ethylene-vinyl acetate) (PEVA), is a copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate. The weight percent of vinyl acetate usually varies from 10 to 50%, with the remainder being ethylene. There are three different types of EVA copolymer, which differ in the vinyl acetate (VA) content and the way the ...

7. Alkyl group - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkyl_group

   Alkyl group. In organic chemistry, an alkyl group is an alkane missing one hydrogen. [1] The term alkyl is intentionally unspecific to include many possible substitutions. An acyclic alkyl has the general formula of −CnH2n+1. A cycloalkyl group is derived from a cycloalkane by removal of a hydrogen atom from a ring and has the general formula ...
