Definition of ethylene
Thanks for using this online dictionary, we have been helping millions of people improve their use of the english language with its free online services. English definition of ethylene is as below...
Ethylene
(n.) A
colorless,
gaseous
hydrocarbon,
C2H4,
forming
an
important
ingredient
of
illuminating
gas, and also
obtained
by the
action
of
concentrated
sulphuric
acid in
alcohol.
It is an
unsaturated
compound
and
combines
directly
with
chlorine
and
bromine
to form oily
liquids
(Dutch
liquid),
-- hence
called
olefiant
gas.
Called
also
ethene,
elayl,
and
formerly,
bicarbureted
hydrogen..
