Raw Material for Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether Production

According to the Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether production plant project report, the major raw materials for Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether production include Diethylene Glycol-Acetylene.

Production Process of Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether

The extensive Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether production cost report consists of the following industrial production process:

• Production from Diethylene Glycol: This method of producing Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether involves the use of diethylene glycol and acetylene as the raw materials. The process is initiated by the base-catalyzed reaction of diethylene glycol with acetylene in the presence of a catalyst such as potassium hydroxide or potassium diethylene glycol to obtain diethylene glycol divinyl ether (DEGDVE) as the final product. The reaction also produces diethylene glycol methyl vinyl ether as a by-product.

Diethylene Glycol Divinyl Ether (DEGDVE) appears as a colorless liquid with a mild odor and the chemical formula C8H14O3. The molecular weight of the compound is 158.19 g/mol. Its boiling point is in the range of 198-199°C, and its melting point is around -21°C. The density of the compound is 0.968 g/mL at 25°C and has a vapor pressure of 17 Pa at 20°C. DEGDVE is insoluble in water but miscible with alcohol, ether, ester, and aromatic hydrocarbons. The flash point of the compound is 71.1°C. DEGDVE is chemically active and is easily polymerized, often requiring stabilization with a small amount of NaOH. It is used as a crosslinking agent in various functional materials and the production of polyacrylate ion exchange resins. Due to its light sensitivity and potential to form unstable peroxides, DEGDVE should be stored below +30°C and handled with care.
