1. Ka fogow xidhiidhka oksidants, acids iyo alkalis. Waa dareere guban kara, markaa fadlan u fiirso isha dabka. Ma aha mid daxalaysa naxaasta, birta khafiifka ah, birta aan lahayn ama aluminiumka.
2. Waxyaabaha kiimikaad: xoogaa xasilloon, alkali wuxuu dardargelin karaa hydrolysiskeeda, asiidhku wax saameyn ah kuma yeelan hydrolysis. Joogitaanka oksaydhyada birta ah, jel silica, iyo kaarboon firfircoon, waxay ku dumisaa 200 ° C si ay u soo saarto kaarboon dioxide iyo ethylene oxide. Marka ay la falgasho phenol, karboksylic acid iyo amine, β-hydroxyethyl ether, β-hydroxyethyl ester iyo β-hydroxyethyl urethane ayaa la soo saaraa siday u kala horreeyaan. Ku karkari alkali si aad u soo saarto karbonat. Ethylene glycol carbonate waxaa lagu kululeeyaa heerkul sare leh alkali si ay u dhaliso polyetylen oxide. Marka la eego ficilka sodium methoxide, sodium monomethyl carbonate ayaa la soo saaray. Ku milmi ethylene glycol carbonate ku jirta hydrobromic acid oo xoog leh, ku kululee 100 ° C dhowr saacadood gudaha tuubo xiran, oo u kala gooya kaarboon dioxide iyo ethylene bromide.
3. Waxa ku jira gaaska qiiqa.
