Excuse me, how should I translate \"producing vinyl acetate via the ethylene process\"? I simply translated it as \"ethylene->vinyl acetic acid\"; I’m not sure if that’s correct Do the experts have any suggestions? Please help~ Additionally, just to add: vinyl acetate is VAC (vinyl acetic acid), right? And vinyl acetate ester is vinyl acetic acid. Is this the correct way to classify them?

Production of vinyl acetate using ethylene – a few humble thoughts
Before, I used the phrase “produce vinyl acetic acid with ethylene”, but I found it cumbersome to use, so I started using a symbol instead
Your previous translation will do; the use of arrows in the article is not standard and is not advisable!
manufacture of vinyl acetate by ethylene method
Vinyl acetic acid is VAC, right? And vinyl acetate is what’s known as vinyl acetate. Is this how I should classify them? Is it correct? This post was last edited by *aoguai607 on 2009-3-12 17:22]
Vinyl acetate and vinyl acetate ester are two names for the same thing; both should be translated as vinyl acetic; Vinyl Acetate Monomer, wait a moment
Sorry, I misspelled the last word earlier; it should be acetate
Vinyl acetate monomer is: Vinyl acetate; Vinyl acetate ester is: Vinyl acetate
Vinyl acetate and vinyl acetic acid are essentially the same thing; as can be seen from their names, a substance formed by combining vinyl acetic acid is a type of ester – it’s just a matter of conventional naming
I think there’s no problem with the title \"(Process of) Vinyl Acetic Acid Produced by the Ethylene\"; I’ve seen it in some magazines. As for the content of the entire article, well…
Vinyl acetate (CH3COOCH=CH2) is abbreviated as vinyl acetate; it is also known as Vinyl Acetate Monomer (VAM). The same substance, different names.
So, may I use different methods for interpretation? Then why does our boss say it’s not possible? It’s frustrating; I thought they were two different things. I’m sorry, as I’m not from a chemical engineering background and have little experience in this field. Please help me out~~
