Chloroethene Vinyl Chloride Monomer

Chlorination of various hydrocarbon feedstocks produces many usehil chlorinated solvents, intermediates, and chemical products. The chlorinated derivatives provide a primary method of upgrading the value of industrial chlorine. The principal chlorinated hydrocarbons produced industrially include chloromethane (methyl chloride), dichloromethane (methylene chloride), trichloromethane (chloroform), tetrachloromethane (carbon tetrachloride), chloroethene (vinyl chloride monomer, VCM), 1,1-dichloroethene (vinylidene chloride), 1,1,2-trichloroethene (trichloroethylene), 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethene (perchloroethylene), mono- and dichloroben2enes, 1,1,1-trichloroethane (methyl chloroform), 1,1,2-trichloroethane, and 1,2-dichloroethane (ethylene dichloride [540-59-0], EDC).

The name of a polymer is usually written with the prefix poly-(meaning many ) before the name of the monomer. Often the common name of the monomer is used, rather than the lUPAC name. For example, the common name of ethene is ethylene. Polyethene, the polymer that is made from ethene, is often called polyethylene. Similarly, the polymer that is made from chloroethene (common name vinyl chloride) is named polyvinylchloride (PVC). The polymer that is made from propene monomers (common name propylene) is commonly called polypropylene, instead of polypropene. [Pg.82]

The production of the monomer vinyl chloride (commonly abbreviated VC or VCM current Chemical Abstracts name chloroethene, indexed as Ethene, Chloro- ) was estimated at a level of approximately 6.0 billion pounds per year for the year 1974 [1]. Virtually all of this is converted to poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) or vinyl chloride-containing copolymers. The annual growth rate from 1966 to 1974 for vinyl chloride-based resins was on the order of 9 7o per annum. It was projected that in the period 1978 to 1980, the annual growth rate would be about 6-7% [1]. [Pg.351]
