Ethylene oxide is most commonly used in the production of other chemicals, including the production of solvents, antifreeze, detergents, adhesives, polyurethane foam, and pharmaceuticals. Ethylene oxide is used in many industries including:
One use of ethylene oxide is in the development of lithium-ion batteries, a key power source for electric vehicles. Ethylene oxide is used to produce ethylene carbonate, which is used in lithium-ion batteries to allow the electricity generated to travel more easily through the battery.
Ethylene oxide and its derivatives are utilized to produce a wide variety of active and inert ingredients, used in insecticides, pesticides, and herbicides. Each active ingredient targets specific needs for the agricultural industry - helping to protect crops and boost crop production.
In processing agricultural crops, demulsifers based on ethylene oxide are employed to improve the separation of oil from water, such as in corn oil extraction in the bioethanol process. This oil can be used in the food chain, animal feed supply, or made into biodiesel.
Ethylene oxide derivatives are used in natural gas purification to reduce corrosion and scale in oil and gas processing, oil well remediation, enhanced oil recovery aids, freeze protection for finished goods, gas dehydration, and carbon capture in gas processing, which ultimately helps enable the energy transition.
