Description Of Goods:

Butanone, also known as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), is an organic compound with the formula CH3C(O)CH2CH3. This colourless liquid ketone has a sharp, sweet odor reminiscent of acetone. It is produced industrially on a large scale, but occurs in nature only in trace amounts.[7] It is partially soluble in water, and is commonly used as an industrial solvent. It is an isomer of another solvent, tetrahydrofuran.

Butanone may be produced by oxidation of 2-butanol. The dehydrogenation of 2-butanol using a catalyst is catalyzed by copper, zinc, or bronze.

Main Characteristic of 2-Butanone:

1. colorless transparent liquid, has a similar odor acetone, volatile.

2. It can be miscible with ethanol, ethyl ether, benzene, chloroform and oil.

3. Soluble in 4 parts of water, but decreases with increasing temperature.

Specification of 2-Butanone:

Applications of 2-Butanone:

1. used as cellulose acetate, acrylic resin, alkyd resin, paint, ink solvent, dye binder, lubricating oil dewaxing agent, curing accelerator, etc

2. Used as reagents for the determination of cadmium, copper and mercury, as a standard substance for chromatographic analysis and as a solvent for semiconductor lithography

3. According to GB 2760 -- 96, edible spices are allowed. Such as, make cheese, coffee and banana flavors.

4. Butanone is the raw material for the preparation of acaricide pyrimite.

5. As the organic synthesis of raw materials, can be used as a solvent. can used in pharmaceutical, coatings, dyes, detergents, spices,oil refining industry and electronics industries.
