About Methyl n-Propyl Ketone

Methyl n-Propyl Ketone

2-Pentanone or Methyl Propyl Ketone (MPK) is a ketone and solvent of minor importance. It is comparable to MEK (Methyl ethyl ketone), but has a lower solvency and is more expensive. MPK (Methyl n-Propyl Ketone) is a medium evaporating, urethane-grade solvent. It is an active solvent for most synthetic resins including acrylics, polyesters, cellulosics, epoxies, vinyls, and alkyds. Its high solvency, low density, and medium evaporation rate make it attractive as a letdown solvent for high-solids resins used in formulating coatings with low VOC content. It is used in gravure printing inks and also provides excellent performance for a wide range of cleaning and surface preparation applications for the transportation industry. It occurs in leaf .

Superior Solvency and Versatility

Methyl n-Propyl Ketone exhibits a high solvency power, allowing it to dissolve a diverse range of substances. This characteristic makes it a preferred choice in manufacturing coatings, adhesives, and inks, ensuring effective application and uniform results. Its colorless, clear appearance ensures it does not alter the properties of the end product, offering flexibility across multiple industrial sectors.

Reliable Quality and Safety Standards

MPK is produced with an assay of 99%, maintaining low moisture (0.05%) and minimum impurity levels. Packaged under stringent conditions in 160 kg drums or bulk containers, it is stable when stored correctly in cool, dry, and well-ventilated areas. Safety considerations are crucial, including a flash point of 15C and autoignition temperature of 460C, making proper storage essential to prevent hazards.

Global Supply from India

Manufactured and supplied by reputable exporters and importers in India, Methyl n-Propyl Ketone is available for both domestic and international markets. The minimum order quantity is 100 kg, catering to small-scale laboratories as well as large-scale manufacturing operations. Its consistent quality and global availability have established it as a trusted solvent within industrial supply chains.

FAQs of Methyl n-Propyl Ketone:

Q: How is Methyl n-Propyl Ketone commonly used in industry?

A: Methyl n-Propyl Ketone (MPK) serves as an effective solvent in the production of coatings, adhesives, and inks. It is also utilized in chemical synthesis and laboratory applications due to its strong solvency and compatibility with other chemicals.

Q: What are the storage recommendations for Methyl n-Propyl Ketone?

A: To maintain stability and ensure safety, MPK should be stored in tightly closed containers in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. It must be kept away from sources of ignition and direct sunlight due to its low flash point of 15C.

Q: When should I consider using MPK over other solvents?

A: MPK is preferred when a moderate evaporation rate, high solvency, and water miscibility (17 g/L at 20C) are required. Its colorless appearance and neutral pH make it suitable for applications needing purity and consistency, such as in premium coatings and inks.

Q: Where can I source high-purity Methyl n-Propyl Ketone?

A: MPK with 99% assay is available from leading chemical exporters, importers, and suppliers in India. It is supplied in 160 kg drums or bulk, with a minimum order quantity of 100 kg, supporting both small and large-scale needs.

Q: What is the process for handling and using MPK safely?

A: Ensure use in well-ventilated areas and avoid open flames or sparks due to its vapor pressure (32 mmHg at 20C) and flash point. Always utilize proper personal protective equipment, and refer to the products safety guidelines during transfer and application.

Q: What are the primary benefits of using Methyl n-Propyl Ketone?

A: MPK offers superior solvency for a broad spectrum of substances, evaporates at a moderate rate, and exhibits low moisture and impurity content, ensuring high performance in final products. Its sweet, unobtrusive odor is also advantageous in workplace settings.
