Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an organic compound (a vicinal diol [7]) with the formula (CH 2 OH) 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.
Ethane-1,2-dithiol, also known as EDT, [1] is a colorless liquid with the formula C 2 H 4 2. It has a very characteristic odor which is compared by many people to rotten cabbage . It is a common building block in organic synthesis and an excellent ligand for metal ions.
1,2-Butanediol is a byproduct of the production of 1,4-butanediol from butadiene. [8] It is also a byproduct of the catalytic hydrocracking of starches and sugars such as sorbitol to ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. [9] It can also be obtained from the dihydroxylation of but-1-ene by OsO 4.
Ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate (EGDMA) is a diester formed by condensation of two equivalents of methacrylic acid and one equivalent of ethylene glycol. [2]EGDMA can be used in free radical copolymer crosslinking reactions.
Ethylene glycol dinitrate is a colorless volatile liquid when in pure state, but is yellowish when impure. Molar weight 152.07, N 18.42%, OB to CO 2 0%, OB to CO +21%; colorless volatile liquid when in pure state; yellowish liquid in crude state; sp gr 1.488 at 20/4° or 1.480 at 25°; n_D 1.4452 at 25° or 1.4472 at 20°; freezing point -22.75° (versus +13.1° for NG); frozen point given in ...
Glycol ethers are designated "E-series" or "P-series" for those made from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide, respectively.Typically, E-series glycol ethers are found in pharmaceuticals, sunscreens, cosmetics, inks, dyes and water-based paints, while P-series glycol ethers are used in degreasers, cleaners, aerosol paints and adhesives.
There had been a knock and an eerie silence, then an attempt by two men to force the door open. Bryan Yeshion Schneps, a 21‑year‑old Temple University student, tried to prevent his attackers from gaining entry. He pressed his hands, his shoulders, his knees, his feet, the full weight of his 6'1", 180‑pound body against the door.
