Advantages of Ethylene
 

Growth

Ethylene stimulates horizontal growth and the swelling of the axis. It inhibits the growth in the longitudinal direction.

Gravity

It reduces the sensitivity to gravity. The stems become positively geotropic and the leaves and flowers undergo drooping.

Senescence

It speeds up the senescence of flowers and leaves.

Refrigerant Grade Ethylene
Ethene

Abscission

Ethylene stimulates the abscission of flowers, leaves, fruits and other parts of the plant. It helps in the formation of hydrolases.

Use of Ethylene
 

Ethylene is an important chemical raw material, widely used in the manufacture of chemical industrial products such as plastics, synthetic resins, rubber, and artificial fibers. In the plastics industry, ethylene is mainly used to manufacture various types of polyethylene and is an important raw material for plastic production. In addition, ethylene is also used in chemical fertilizers, spices, medicine and other industries.

Preparation Method of Ethylene

 

Refrigerant Grade Ethylene

The main methods for preparing ethylene include evaporation and cracking. Among them, cracking is one of the main methods for the industrial preparation of ethylene. It is generally produced by the cracking of hydrocarbon and alkyl molecules, and the main raw materials used in industrial production are petroleum and natural gas.

 

The Structure of Ethylene

This hydrocarbon has four hydrogen atoms bound to a pair of carbon atoms that are connected by a double bond. All six atoms that comprise ethylene are coplanar. The H-C-H angle is 117.4°, close to the 120° for ideal sp² hybridized carbon. The molecule is also relatively weak: rotation about the C-C bond is a very low energy process that requires breaking the π-bond by supplying heat at 50 °C.

The π-bond in the ethylene molecule is responsible for its useful reactivity. The double bond is a region of high electron density, thus it is susceptible to attack by electrophiles. Many reactions of ethylene are catalyzed by transition metals, which bind transiently to the ethylene using both the π and π* orbitals.

FAQ

 

Q: What is ethylene?

A: Ethylene is an industrial organic compound produced by heating either natural gas or petroleum to 900 °C. A mixture of gases is obtained from which ethylene is separated.

Q: What is the important function of ethylene in plants?

A: Ethylene acts as a plant growth regulator. It accelerates the development process in plants such as senescence, ripening, and abscission.

Q: How does banana ripen faster?

A: Banana produces ethylene gas which helps in the fruit ripening faster. Ethylene gas acts as a plant growth regulator.

Q: Name a few ethylene-producing fruits.

A: Ethylene producing fruits include- banana, avocado, apricot, kiwi, honeydew lemons, mangoes, cantaloupes, etc. These fruits ripen faster because of the production of ethylene gas.

Q: What is made out of ethylene?

A: Ethylene is used to make ethylene oxide which is used to make ethylene glycol. Monoethylene glycol is used for the production of polyester fibres for the textile industry, and PET resins for bottles. Ethylene is also used as a petrochemical.

Q: How is ethylene produced commercially?

A: Commercially, ethylene is produced by steam cracking of a wide range of hydrocarbon feedstocks such as naphtha, gas oil, and condensates with coproduction of propylene, aromatics and C4 olefins.
