Method for preparing vinyl chloride from ethylene is carried out by the oxidehydrochlorination reaction.
Vinyl chloride from ethylene.
The feedstock for the thermolysis can be obtained from two routes.
1 direct chlorination of ethylene to form edc 2 oxychlorination of ethylene to form from recycled hcl and oxygen 3 purification of edc 4 thermal cracking of edc to form vcm and hcl and 5 the purification of vcm.
The liquid stream from the quench tower as well as the condenser is fed to the vinyl still which produces the vinyl chloride product.
The five main processes used in the production of vinyl chloride monomer vcm are.
The gases from the quench tower then enter a partial condenser which produces hcl as a gas and the liquid stream consisting of vinyl chloride unreacted ethylene dichloride and polychlorides.
Invention relates to a method for preparing vinyl chloride monomer and to a catalyst sued in catalytic preparing vinyl chloride monomer from flows comprising ethylene.
Hence to save the processing cost for manufacturing ethylene numerous attempts have been made to convert ethane directly to vinyl chloride.
Production of vinyl chloride from ethylene today vinyl chloride is almost exclusively manufactured by thermal cleavage dehydrochlorination of 1 2 dichloroethane edc.
The purified ethylene dichloride undergoes selective cracking to form vinyl chloride.
These processes are shown in figure 1.
Vcm is a major commodity chemical mainly used in the production of the polymer.
In one ethylene is converted to 1 2 dichloroethane ethylene chloride by reaction with chlorine.
Vinyl chloride also known as vinyl chloride monomer vcm and chloroethene is an organochloride compound.
At room temperature vcm is a gas with a sweet ethereal odor but in industrial processes it is most often handled as a liquid melting point 13 c.
As there is vinyl chloride in the polymer s backbone the emulsion possesses excellent characteristics such as excellent flame retardancy and water alkaline resistance.
Ethylene first reacts with chlorine to produce ethylene dichloride.
Ethylene vinyl chloride evcl emulsion is the copolymer of ethylene and vinyl chloride with amide functional group.
There are three different types of eva copolymer which differ in the vinyl acetate va content and the way the materials are used.
Ethylene vinyl acetate eva also known as poly ethylene vinyl acetate peva is the copolymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate the weight percent of vinyl acetate usually varies from 10 to 40 with the remainder being ethylene.
