1. Gwema ukuthintana nama-oxidants, ama-asidi nama-alkali. Iwuketshezi oluvutha umlilo, ngakho-ke sicela unake umthombo womlilo. Ayigqwali ithusi, insimbi ethambile, insimbi engagqwali noma i-aluminium.
2. Izakhiwo zamakhemikhali: zizinzile, i-alkali ingasheshisa i-hydrolysis yayo, i-asidi ayinamthelela ku-hydrolysis. Lapho kukhona ama-oxide ensimbi, ijeli ye-silica, nekhabhoni ecushiwe, ibola ngo-200°C ukuze kukhiqizwe i-carbon dioxide ne-ethylene oxide. Uma isabela nge-phenol, i-carboxylic acid ne-amine, i-β-hydroxyethyl ether, i-β-hydroxyethyl ester ne-β-hydroxyethyl urethane ikhiqizwa ngokulandelanayo. Bilisa nge-alkali ukukhiqiza i-carbonate. I-Ethylene glycol carbonate ishiselwa ezingeni lokushisa eliphezulu nge-alkali njengesisusa sokukhiqiza i-polyethylene oxide. Ngaphansi kwesenzo se-sodium methoxide, i-sodium monomethyl carbonate ikhiqizwa. Chaza i-ethylene glycol carbonate ku-hydrobromic acid egxilile, uyishise ku-100 ° C amahora amaningana eshubhuni elivaliwe, futhi uyibolise ibe yi-carbon dioxide ne-ethylene bromide.
3. Ikhona ku-flue gas.
