Product Description and Handling Guide Methyl Isobutyl Ketone

Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (MIBK) 4-Methyl-2-pentanone CAS no. 108-10-1 EC no. 203-550-1

Product description Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (MIBK) is a colorless liquid exhibiting a faint ketonic and camphor-like odor. One of the most useful among the acetone derivate solvents, it has a medium evaporation rate. MIBK is stable and does not polymerize. MIBK is highly compatible with a variety of organic reagents and is a good solvent for a wide range of industrial materials.

Possible applications End uses for MIBK include coating solvents, rare-metal extraction, process solvent for adhesives, ink formulations, leather finishing, pharmaceuticals, and as a chemical intermediate. MIBK is an excellent solvent for cellulose-based and resin-based coating systems. It is a useful solvent for pyrethrins, rubber cements and model dopes. It is a chemical intermediate for rubber antioxidants and specialty surfactants. MIBK contains dewaxing and separating properties, which can be used in the purification of different chemicals, mineral oils, tall oil, stearic acid and butanol.

Product Description and Handling Guide Methyl Isobutyl Ketone Shelf life The shelf life of Methyl Isobutyl Ketone (MIBK) is one year. The shelf life dates from the day of packaging for small containers; for bulk product, it is the day of loading. This period is in general applicable to material stored under recommended conditions (see Storage and Handling sections). When product exceeds its shelf life or storage deviates from the recommended conditions, periodic monitoring may be required to verify quality status of the product.

Refer to NFPA #77 “Static Electricity” for proper electrical grounding procedures. See the National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) #30 “Flammable and Combustible Liquids code” and consult with qualified fire protection specialists to determine specific storage tank design requirements. Blanketing may be used to retain quality in long-term storage conditions.

Handling o

Thoroughly review Material Safety Data Sheet before handling product.

o

Keep containers closed when not in use.

o

Open containers slowly to allow an y excess pressure to vent.

o

Keep away from heat, sparks, flame or other sources of ignition.

o

Protect small containers from ph ysical damage.

o

Use proper electrical grounding and bonding procedures when loading, unloading and transferring.

o

Refer to the Material Safety Data Sheet for more information on materials to avoid.

o

Use spark-resistant tools.

o

o o

Electrical equipment and circuits in all storage and handling areas must conform to requirements of national electrical code (Articles 500 and 501) for hazardous location. Methyl Isobutyl Ketone floats on water and may create a special hazard. Methyl Isobutyl Ketone vapor is heavier than air and can travel considerable distance to a source of ignition and flashback.
