Methyl Ethyl Ketone

Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) is a water white, highly volatile liquid having Acetone-like odour with no cumulative toxicological properties. Methyl Ethyl Ketone is one of the most versatile solvents, capable of dissolving a wide range of substances. Its excellent solvent properties are used by the surface coating, printing ink, plastic processing, resin industries and lubricating oil de-waxing in the Refineries. Methyl Ethyl Ketone is miscible with most organic solvents and owing to the high reactivity of the carbonyl group, it is used as an intermediate in a number of chemical products, such as Aroma Chemicals.
