Vinyl Chloride (chloroethylene, monochloroethylene, vinyl chloride monomer, or, simply, VCM), the fruit of the organochlorine chemistry, is a reactive colourless and extremely inflammable gassy nonsaturated compound with the formula C2H3Cl. Over the prior half of the by-gone century, Vinyl Chloride was widely synthesized from acetylene (ethyne) and hydrogen chloride (HCl) with mercury(II) chloride employed as a catalyst.
Today, Vinyl Chloride is derived by using ethylene-based processes – direct chlorination and oxychlorination, which are more economically feasible. These methods are typically combined at Vinyl Chloride facilities in westerly European countries. Approximately a hundred percent of Vinyl Chloride produced undergoes further polymerization for the making of PVC (polyvinyl chloride), a much used plastic material, notably in the building and piping industries. The compound is also utilized as a refrigerant agent.
