Methyl Isobutyl（MIBK） also called Isobutyl methyl ketone; Isopropylacetone; Methyl isobutyl ketone; Hexone; Methyl isobutyl keton; Methyl isobuty ketone; 4-methylpentan-2-one
HS Code: 2914130000
CAS No.:108-10-1 , EC No.: 203-550-1
Formula: C6H12O
USE
- Coatings and paints
Solvent: MIBK has good solubility, can dissolve a variety of resins, such as acrylic resin, alkyd resin, epoxy resin, etc., so that it can be used as a solvent in coatings and paints, can adjust the viscosity of the coating, drying speed and leveling, help to improve the construction performance of the coating and the quality of the film.
Diluent: can be used as a diluent to dilute paint and coatings, reduce its concentration, so as to facilitate spraying, brushing and other construction operations, while improving the spray effect of the coating, so that the coating is more uniform and smooth.
- Ink field
Solvent and co-solvent: In ink manufacturing, MIBK can be used as a solvent or co-solvent to dissolve the resin, pigment and other components in the ink, so that the ink has good fluidity and stability, to ensure that the ink can be uniformly transferred to the printing material during the printing process, and improve the printing quality.
- Adhesive field
Solvent: used to dissolve the polymer in the adhesive, so that the adhesive has good coating properties and bonding properties. It can help the adhesive better wet the surface of the adhesive, improve the adhesion between the adhesive and the adhesive, and thus enhance the bonding effect.
- Electronics industry
Cleaning agent: MIBK has strong solubility and volatility, can quickly and effectively remove oil, dust, resin and other impurities on the surface of electronic components, and will not cause damage to electronic components, so it is often used in the electronics industry cleaning process, such as cleaning printed circuit boards, semiconductor chips and so on.
- The field of medicine
Intermediate: It is an important intermediate for the synthesis of some drugs and can be used to prepare antibiotics, vitamins and other drugs.
Extractant: In the process of drug extraction and separation, MIBK can be used as an extractant to extract and separate the target drug ingredients from complex mixtures, using its solubility differences with different substances to achieve the enrichment and purification of drug ingredients.
- Other areas
Fragrances and flavors: It can be used as a solvent and diluent of fragrances and flavors to help them dissolve and disperse better, so that they are evenly distributed in the product and play a better aroma effect.
Chemical synthesis: It is an important raw material in organic synthesis and can be used to synthesize other organic compounds, such as preparing methyl isobutyl methanol, methyl methacrylate and other chemical products through chemical reactions.
Extractant: In the extraction and separation process of some metal ions, MIBK can be used as an extractant, using its characteristics of forming a complex with metal ions to achieve the separation and enrichment of metal ions, and has important applications in the extraction and recovery of rare metals.
