Its involvement in the dewaxing processes, refining rosin, and extracting pine lignin largely drives its demand in the oil & petroleum, chemical, and pulp & paper industries. Its application as a building block in manufacturing various chemical compounds further enhances its demand in the chemical manufacturing industry. Moreover, its involvement in the preparation of certain pharmaceuticals, dyes, biocides, and plasticizers also fuels its demand in the textiles, pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and plastics industries. In general, the cost and the availability of the raw materials (ethylene, etc.), sustainability practices, maintaining quality standards, technological advancements, and logistics serve as factors that influence Ethylene Chlorohydrin procurement worldwide.

Raw Material for Ethylene Chlorohydrin Production

According to the Ethylene Chlorohydrin manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Ethylene Chlorohydrin production include Ethylene-Hypochlorous Acid.

Manufacturing Process of Ethylene Chlorohydrin

The extensive Ethylene Chlorohydrin production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Ethylene: In this method, ethylene and hypochlorous acid serve as the key starting materials for the synthesis of ethylene chlorohydrin as the product. The process is initiated by the chemical reaction of ethylene with hypochlorous acid, which results in the formation of 2-chloroethanol or ethylene chlorohydrin as the desired product.

Ethylene Chlorohydrin, also known as 2-chloroethanol, is a chemical compound comprising two carbon, five hydrogen, one chlorine, and one oxygen atom. The molecular formula of the compound is C2H5ClO, and a molecular mass of around 80.52 g/mol. It is a colorless liquid with an ether-like odor, water-soluble, and combustible. The vapors of Ethylene Chlorohydrin are heavier than air and very toxic, and its melting and boiling points are measured at around -67 °C and 130 °C, respectively. This compound has a flash point of approximately 40 °C. When heated with water at around 100 °C, Ethylene Chlorohydrin decomposes to produce Ethylene Glycol and HCL. At higher temperatures, around 184 °C, it further decomposes into ethylene chloride and acetaldehyde. It can evaporate readily at room temperature and, upon heating, emits hazardous fumes of hydrogen chloride and phosgene. Direct exposure to Ethylene Chlorohydrin can damage the central nervous system and irritate the skin and eyes. The flash point and its autoignition temperature are 40°C and 375°C, respectively.
