Ethylene oxide, also called as oxirane, is an organic compound with molecular formula C2H4O. It is a colorless and flammable gas with a mildly sweet odor. Ethylene oxide is industrially produced by oxidation of ethylene in the presence of silver catalyst. Presently, ethylene oxide is widely used in chemical processing and healthcare industries in developing regions.
