Propylene oxide (PO for short) is an organic compound with the molecular formula C3H6O. It is a clear colorless, highly volatile, low-boiling, soluble in water liquid with a sweet, ethereal smell. The compound, which has a boiling point of 34 °, is highly flammable and reactive. Propylene oxide is produced by the reaction of propylene with oxygen.
The compound can be used in the production of polymers and in the synthesis of such chemicals as polyether polyols, propylene glycols and glycol ethers. Flame retardants, oil field drilling chemicals, synthetic lubricants are amid other products made from propylene oxide. Propylene ethers are used as a solvent in paints, resins, waxes, food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, etc.Besides, the compound is applied in the furniture and automotive industries.
China and Western Europe, followed by the USA, are the main consumers of propylene oxide. The USA consumes almost 20% of propylene oxide produced worldwide.
