Linde and SABIC have developed the α-SABLIN technology using the oligomerization of ethylene to produce 21 percent 1-hexene.
He found new methods for the synthesis of pyrylium salts (Balaban-Nenitzescu-Praill synthesis), of carbenes, triptamine, serotonin, two new syntheses for the indole nucleus, and a new method of polymerisation of ethylene.
The cut protection is provided high performance materials such as Para aramid (Twaron, Kevlar), HPPE (High Performance Poly Ethylene, Dynema, Spectra), special PVA yarns (SupraBlock) or steelfibre and fibreglass yarns.
In practical courses at colleges, students sometimes get acquainted to the GC by studying the contents of Lavender oil or measuring the ethylene that is secreted by Nicotiana benthamiana plants after artificially injuring their leaves.
The resulting product is a mixture (CAS number 61791-12-6): the major component is the material in which the hydroxyl groups of the castor oil triglyceride have ethoxylated with ethylene oxide to form polyethylene glycol ethers.
Approximately 4km from Lochgelly is the Fife Ethylene Plant, known locally as Mossmorran and run by ExxonMobil.
Reactive flash volatilization was demonstrated in 2006 in the journal Science by the high temperature (700–800 °C) conversion of soybean oil (triglycerides) and sugar (D-(+)-glucose) to synthesis gas (H2 + CO) and olefins (ethylene and propylene).
