Ethylene Gas 99.95% Industrial Grade, CAS 74-85-1, UN1962

Industrial-grade ethylene gas candidate for overseas sourcing review, listed at 99.95% purity with CAS 74-85-1, formula C2H4, EINECS 200-815-3, UN1962, and DOT Class 2.1 flammable gas classification. Buyer checks should focus on certificate-backed purity, ppm-level impurity limits, cylinder or ISO tank configuration, valve compatibility, DG sea-freight readiness, and import documentation for the destination market, including India.

Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Industrial gas distribution after destination compliance review
  • Petrochemical feedstock sourcing where industrial-grade ethylene is acceptable
  • Controlled industrial applications requiring documented C2H4 purity and ppm impurity checks
  • Bulk import planning for cylinder or ISO tank supply channels
  • Supplier benchmarking for India-market ethylene gas procurement
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • 40 L cylinder supply for smaller industrial-gas orders
  • 50 L cylinder supply for higher cylinder net weight per unit
  • 47 L cylinder supply if available and accepted by buyer market
  • T75 ISO tank supply for bulk sea-freight procurement
  • Industrial-grade 99.95% min purity as the baseline specification
  • Custom package or valve confirmation subject to supplier acceptance and destination rules
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Ethylene is listed as UN1962, Class 2.1 flammable gas; shipment should be reviewed as dangerous goods before RFQ confirmation
  • Air shipment is generally unsuitable for flammable gas; supplier text indicates sea transportation for larger purchases
  • Request SDS, COA, DG declaration, packing certificate, cylinder inspection records, commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin where applicable
  • Confirm HS Code 2901210000 and destination import requirements with the buyer's customs broker
  • For India-bound sourcing, verify importer licensing, port acceptance, cylinder or ISO tank acceptance, and any local approvals before purchase
  • Do not rely on marketplace text as a regulatory determination; final classification, labeling, transport route, and documentation should be confirmed by qualified logistics and compliance parties
