Methyl isobutyl ketone (MIBK, 4-methylpentan-2-one) is an organic compound with the condensed chemical formula (CH 3) 2 CHCH 2 C(O)CH 3. This ketone is a colourless liquid that is used as a solvent for gums, resins, paints, varnishes, lacquers, and nitrocellulose.
Mesityl oxide is used as a solvent and in the production of methyl isobutyl ketone by hydrogenation: [5] Further hydrogenation gives 4-methyl-2-pentanol (methyl isobutyl carbinol). Dimedone is another established use of mesityl oxide.
Butanone, also known as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or ethyl methyl ketone, [a] is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 C(O)CH 2 CH 3. This colorless 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]
Kumho P&B Chemicals provides BPA (bisphenol A), MIBK (methyl isobutyl ketone), epoxy resin, phenol, and acetone.

(founded in 1976) Kumho Polychem provides EPDM(ethylene propylene diene monomer) with 4th largest production capacity in the world. (founded in 1985)
Isobutylene is used in the production of a variety of products. It is alkylated with butane to produce isooctane or dimerized to diisobutylene (DIB) and then hydrogenated to make isooctane, a fuel additive. Isobutylene is also used in the production of methacrolein. Polymerization of isobutylene produces butyl rubber (polyisobutylene or PIB).
In organic chemistry, a ketone / ˈ k iː t oʊ n / is an organic compound with the structure R−C(=O)−R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones contain a carbonyl group −C(=O)− (a carbon-oxygen double bond C=O). The simplest ketone is acetone (where R and R' is methyl), with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO ...
4-Methyl-2-pentanol (IUPAC name: 4-methylpentan-2-ol) or methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) is an organic chemical compound used primarily as a frother in mineral flotation and in the production of lubricant oil additives such as Zinc dithiophosphate. [4]
Hexanone may refer to the following ketones containing six carbon atoms: . 2-Hexanone (Methyl butyl ketone, MBK) . 4-Methyl-2-pentanone (Methyl isobutyl ketone, MIBK); 3-Methyl-2-pentanone (Methyl sec-butyl ketone)
