This colourless volatile liquid is produced on a large scale industrially, its major application being its use for the production of polyether polyols for use in making polyurethane plastics. It is a chiral epoxide, although it is commonly used as a racemic mixture. This compound is sometimes called 1,2-propylene oxide to distinguish it from its isomer 1,3-propylene oxide, better known as oxetane. ==Production== Industrial production of propylene oxide starts from propylene. Two general approaches are employed, one involving hydrochlorination and the other involving oxidation.〔Dietmar Kahlich, Uwe Wiechern, Jörg Lindner “Propylene Oxide” in ''Ullmann's Encyclopedia of Industrial Chemistry'', 2002 by Wiley-VCH, Weinheim. Article Online Posting Date: June 15, 2000〕 In 2005, about half of the world production was through chlorohydrin technology and one half via oxidation routes. The latter approach is growing in importance. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「propylene oxide」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
