Abstract
Polyethylene is produced commercially in very large quantities in many parts of the world. The monomer can be synthesized from various sources. Today, however, most ethylene comes from petroleum by high-temperature cracking of ethane or gasoline fractions. Other potential sources can probably be found, depending upon the availability of raw materials.
