Ammoxidation

In organic chemistry, ammoxidation is a process for the production of nitriles using ammonia and oxygen.

See M-Xylene and Ammoxidation

Arene substitution pattern

Arene substitution patterns are part of organic chemistry IUPAC nomenclature and pinpoint the position of substituents other than hydrogen in relation to each other on an aromatic hydrocarbon.

See M-Xylene and Arene substitution pattern

Aromatic compound

Aromatic compounds or arenes usually refers to organic compounds "with a chemistry typified by benzene" and "cyclically conjugated." The word "aromatic" originates from the past grouping of molecules based on odor, before their general chemical properties were understood.

See M-Xylene and Aromatic compound

Benzene

Benzene is an organic chemical compound with the molecular formula C6H6. The benzene molecule is composed of six carbon atoms joined in a planar hexagonal ring with one hydrogen atom attached to each. Because it contains only carbon and hydrogen atoms, benzene is classed as a hydrocarbon. Benzene is a natural constituent of petroleum and is one of the elementary petrochemicals.

See M-Xylene and Benzene

Catalysis

Catalysis is the increase in rate of a chemical reaction due to an added substance known as a catalyst.

See M-Xylene and Catalysis

Copolymer

In polymer chemistry, a copolymer is a polymer derived from more than one species of monomer.

See M-Xylene and Copolymer

Debye

The debye (symbol: D) is a CGS unit (a non-SI metric unit) of electric dipole momentTwo equal and opposite charges separated by some distance constitute an electric dipole.

See M-Xylene and Debye

Isomer

In chemistry, isomers are molecules or polyatomic ions with identical molecular formula – that is, the same number of atoms of each element – but distinct arrangements of atoms in space.

See M-Xylene and Isomer

Isophthalic acid

Isophthalic acid is an organic compound with the formula C6H4(CO2H)2.

See M-Xylene and Isophthalic acid

Isophthalonitrile

Isophthalonitrile is an organic compound with the formula C6H4(CN)2.

See M-Xylene and Isophthalonitrile

Monomer

A monomer (mono-, "one" + -mer, "part") is a molecule that can react together with other monomer molecules to form a larger polymer chain or three-dimensional network in a process called polymerization.

See M-Xylene and Monomer

O-Xylene

o-Xylene (ortho-xylene) is an aromatic hydrocarbon with the formula C6H4(CH3)2, with two methyl substituents bonded to adjacent carbon atoms of a benzene ring (the ortho configuration). M-Xylene and o-Xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.

See M-Xylene and O-Xylene

P-Xylene

p-Xylene (''para''-xylene) is an aromatic hydrocarbon. M-Xylene and p-Xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.

See M-Xylene and P-Xylene

Petroleum

Petroleum or crude oil, also referred to as simply oil, is a naturally occurring yellowish-black liquid mixture of mainly hydrocarbons, and is found in geological formations.

See M-Xylene and Petroleum

Poise (unit)

The poise (symbol P) is the unit of dynamic viscosity (absolute viscosity) in the centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS).

See M-Xylene and Poise (unit)

Polyethylene terephthalate

Polyethylene terephthalate (or poly(ethylene terephthalate), PET, PETE, or the obsolete PETP or PET-P), is the most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family and is used in fibres for clothing, containers for liquids and foods, and thermoforming for manufacturing, and in combination with glass fibre for engineering resins.

See M-Xylene and Polyethylene terephthalate

Redox

Redox (reduction–oxidation or oxidation–reduction) is a type of chemical reaction in which the oxidation states of the reactants change.

See M-Xylene and Redox

Royal Society of Chemistry

The Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) is a learned society and professional association in the United Kingdom with the goal of "advancing the chemical sciences".

Steam distillation

Steam distillation is a separation process that consists of distilling water together with other volatile and non-volatile components.

See M-Xylene and Steam distillation

Tetrachloro-m-xylene

Tetrachloro-m-xylene (tetrachlorometaxylene, or TCMX) is the organochlorine compound with the formula C6Cl4(CH3)2.

See M-Xylene and Tetrachloro-m-xylene

Toluene

Toluene, also known as toluol, is a substituted aromatic hydrocarbon with the chemical formula, often abbreviated as, where Ph stands for phenyl group. M-Xylene and Toluene are Alkylbenzenes.

See M-Xylene and Toluene

United States Environmental Protection Agency

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is an independent agency of the United States government tasked with environmental protection matters.

Xylene

In organic chemistry, xylene or xylol (IUPAC name: dimethylbenzene) are any of three organic compounds with the formula. M-Xylene and xylene are Alkylbenzenes and c2-Benzenes.

See M-Xylene and Xylene

Xylidine

Xylidine can refer to any of the six isomers of xylene amine, or any mixture of them.
