The 12 pages that link to Ethylene oxide, each with the reason it gives.

• AlkeneBroader topic: Ethylene is oxidized across its double bond to manufacture this high-volume intermediate.

• EthyleneBroader topic: It is a major product made by selective oxidation of ethylene.

• Ethylene glycolRelated: Industrial hydration of ethylene oxide is a principal route to ethylene glycol.

• Steam crackingRelated: It converts cracked ethylene into intermediates for antifreeze and other products.

• EtheneRelated: Ethene is oxidized industrially to produce this major chemical intermediate.

• PetrochemicalBroader topic: It channels ethylene into antifreeze, polyester, and household-product ingredients.

• EpoxideBroader topic: This small epoxide is a major feedstock and a practical sterilant.

• Polyethylene glycolRelated: Ring-opening polymerization of this molecule creates PEG’s repeating backbone.

• Peracetic acidCompared with: It penetrates packaging and complex devices differently, but requires extensive aeration after treatment.

• GlutaraldehydeCompared with: It sterilizes by alkylation rather than glutaraldehyde’s aqueous cross-linking chemistry.

• PiperazineRelated: Ethylene oxide is one feedstock used in industrial piperazine production.

• Diethylene glycolRelated: It is a common industrial starting material in routes that produce diethylene glycol.
