MIBK Chemical is Methyl isobutyl ketone, also known as 4-methyl-2-pentane, it is a colorless transparent liquid with camphor smell, with a relative density of 0.801, almost insoluble in water, but can form an azeotrope with water, its boiling point is 87.9℃.
Uses of MIBK Chemical
4-Methyl-2-pentanone MIBK can be used as a solvent in organic synthesis reactions, especially in the extraction and separation of plant extracts.

How is MIBK Chemical (CAS 108-10-1) produced?
CAS 108-10-1 methyl isobutyl ketone MIBK chemical is produced by four different routes: a three-step process via diacetone alcohol and mesityl oxide intermediates; a one-step process from acetone and hydrogen; a one-step process from isopropyl alcohol; and a single or multistep mixed feed process. MIBK is generally considered to exhibit low mammalian toxicity. However, MIBK must be handled with adequate ventilation.
