Is CAS 108-10-1 MIBK polar or nonpolar?

MIBK (Methyl Isobutyl Ketone) is a polar solvent. Its polarity originates from the carbonyl functional group (C=O) in its molecular structure.

Its polar nature enables it to dissolve polar organic compounds, such as resins, oils and pigments, while its branched alkyl groups ensure compatibility with non-polar solvents and compounds. This makes it a versatile 'universal' solvent for industrial applications.
