Ethane & Ethylene Gas
Ethane (C₂H₆) and Ethylene (C₂H₄) are important hydrocarbon gases widely used across the petrochemical and chemical industries. Ethane is primarily used as a feedstock for ethylene production, while Ethylene is one of the most important chemical building blocks used in the manufacture of polyethylene, ethylene oxide, ethylene glycol and other chemical products. Both gases are available for industrial, analytical, research and specialty gas applications according to required specifications.
