With the chemical formula C3H6O, a molecular weight of 58.08, and registered under CAS 67-64-1, this simple ketone — systematically known as propan-2-one — is a cornerstone of industrial compounding. It possesses exceptional solvency for a wide range of organic compounds, including synthetic resins, acrylics, fats, and cellulose esters. Its low viscosity allows for rapid penetration and wetting of substrates in preparation processes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn physical appearance, Acetone Technical Grade is a clear, colorless liquid characterized by a distinct sweetish, fruity odor. It has a high vapor pressure and a low boiling point, meaning it vaporizes swiftly and completely without leaving any residue or film behind. This rapid drying characteristic makes it indispensable for precision cleaning, degreasing, and flash-drying applications across manufacturing lines. Its physical properties make it lighter than water with high solubility, allowing it to function effectively in both neat and aqueous formulations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSelecting Technical Grade acetone is highly cost-effective for applications where analytical-reagent tolerances are not necessary but high solvent power is essential. This grade provides a practical balance of purity and performance for industrial manufacturing, fiberglass fabrication, and metal prep. Utilizing high-purity laboratory grades in bulk industrial environments introduces unnecessary overhead costs without yielding any improvement in chemical performance or final product quality. Thus, this technical specification is the standard choice for manufacturing facilities seeking to optimize operational efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConversely, choosing an incorrect grade can lead to severe process failures and defective products. For instance, using lower-grade alternatives with elevated moisture levels or non-volatile residues can ruin moisture-sensitive resin systems, resulting in incomplete curing or weakened polymer structures. In surface coating preparation, trace contaminants from substandard solvents can cause adhesion failures or surface blemishes such as fish-eyes and blistering.

This colorless, volatile liquid features a characteristic pleasant, pungent, acetone-like odor that is recognizable across many chemical environments. As a highly efficient solvent, it is widely utilized in the production of protective finishes, industrial coatings, and specialty adhesives. With a molecular formula of C4H8O and a molecular weight of 72.11, MEK is highly valued for its exceptional solvency power, fast evaporation rate, and low viscosity, making it an indispensable component in complex solvent systems.

It operates efficiently in normal conditions without reacting with water or many common structural materials, providing stability in typical industrial transportation and storage environments. Businesses across North America trust our bulk and packaged options for demanding processing and manufacturing applications. We ensure that our quality processes meet standard commercial specifications to deliver consistent chemical performance to your production line every single day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn high-precision industrial applications, the purity of Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) is critical to maintaining formulation standards and ensuring product consistency. Since no specific grade is designated in the canonical record, we supply a high-purity industrial grade optimized to minimize moisture and non-volatile impurities. Buyers select this grade to ensure that polymerization reactions, resin dissolutions, and adhesive compounding proceed without unwanted chemical side reactions. A lesser solvent grade with elevated water content or organic impurities will compromise the overall solvency power, leading to phase separation, cloudy coatings, or incomplete resin curing in your final products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsing an incorrect grade or a contaminated solvent introduces significant failure modes into your manufacturing system. For instance, in specialty coatings, even trace amounts of moisture or heavier ketones can severely slow down the drying time, cause surface blushing, and reduce the overall adhesion of the paint to metal substrates. Similarly, in precision cleaning of aerospace components, improper solvent purity leaves behind a microscopic residue that can lead to part degradation or poor bonding in subsequent steps. By utilizing our consistent technical-grade MEK, you eliminate these variables and secure predictable outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e78-93-3\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eC4H8O\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e72.11 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e175.3 °F at 760 mmHg (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e-123.3 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFlash Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e26 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0.806 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMethyl ethyl ketone appears as colorless fairly volatile liquid with a pleasant pungent odor.

Famously represented by the molecular formula C6H12O and registered under CAS 108-10-1, this medium-boiling ketone serves as an excellent solvent for various gums, resins, paints, varnishes, lacquers, and nitrocellulose. It offers a balanced evaporation rate and high solvency power, making it a reliable choice for formulations requiring exact control over dry times and viscosity. As a key agent in extraction and analytical applications, this clear, colorless liquid provides consistent performance in demanding laboratory environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur MIBK is manufactured and packaged to meet the stringent specifications established by the American Chemical Society (ACS). In industrial processes where impurities can poison catalysts or disrupt chemical reactions, selecting a high-purity ACS grade solvent is paramount. Alliance Chemical ensures that each batch undergoes testing to verify compliance with ACS guidelines, minimizing variables in critical workflows. This product possesses a characteristic pleasant odor, a molecular weight of 100.16, and is less dense than water with a density of 0.802 at 68 °F, allowing it to float if mixed with water under non-emulsifying conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe American Chemical Society (ACS) grade designation specifies strict limits on impurities such as water, acidity, heavy metals, and residue after evaporation. In high-precision research and manufacturing, choosing ACS Grade over technical or industrial grades is necessary because minor contaminant traces can cause unwanted side reactions, damage sensitive instruments, or throw off chromatographic calibrations. For example, excess water in a ketone solvent can significantly lower the solubility of specific polymers or interfere with moisture-sensitive extraction procedures, leading to compromised test results or product failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFailing to use the correct high-purity grade of Methyl Isobutyl Ketone can result in severe failure modes, including the precipitation of dissolved resins, cloudiness in clear coatings, and incorrect baseline readings in analytical spectroscopy. When technical grade solvents are substituted where ACS grade is specified, trace organic impurities can act as chain terminators in polymerization reactions or cause unexpected degradation over time. By maintaining strict control over the concentration of free acids and non-volatile residues, ACS Grade MIBK provides chemical distributors and laboratories with the consistency needed to prevent costly batch rejections and instrument downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e108-10-1\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eC6H12O\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e100.16 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e243 to 244 °F at 760 mmHg (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e-120.5 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFlash Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e73 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0.802 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMethyl isobutyl ketone appears as a clear colorless liquid with a pleasant odor.

With its characteristic ketone odor, this clear, colorless liquid serves as an efficient solvent for a diverse range of resins, polymers, and surface coatings. It has a molecular formula of C6H12O and a molecular weight of 100.16, making it an excellent medium-evaporating compound for industrial formulations. As a key component in the production of paints, varnishes, and nitrocellulose lacquers, MIBK balances solubility and evaporation rates, ensuring consistent, high-quality finishes in industrial applications.

Because of its moderate volatility and favorable partition coefficient (logP of 1.3), MIBK is heavily utilized as an extraction solvent in metallurgical processes, including the separation of rare-earth metals and niobium from tantalum. Additionally, its low water solubility makes it highly effective in dewaxing mineral oils and separating organic compounds from aqueous streams. Every bulk and packaged delivery is carefully managed to preserve the chemical's stability and technical specification profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe selection of Technical Grade Methyl Isobutyl Ketone is critical for applications where minor trace components do not interfere with the primary chemical reaction or solvation properties. Technical grade reagents balance cost efficiency and high performance, presenting an optimal choice for large-scale operations such as industrial solvent extraction, surface coating manufacture, and large-scale synthesis. Attempting to substitute higher purity grades, like ACS or HPLC grades, where they are not chemically necessary, dramatically inflates operating costs without providing any functional process benefit. This makes our Technical Grade the logical benchmark for heavy manufacturing operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConversely, using a sub-standard or incorrect solvent grade can lead to severe process failure modes. For instance, in surface coating formulations, a grade with excessive water content or volatile impurities will disrupt the drying profile, leading to physical defects such as pinholes, orange peel texture, or reduced adhesion to metal substrates. In metallurgical extraction, trace contaminants in a lower-grade ketone can permanently poison expensive extraction beds, skewing partition coefficients and degrading the separation efficiency of valuable rare-earth metals. Understanding these chemical tolerances ensures consistent throughput and prevents costly production downtime.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e108-10-1\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eC6H12O\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e100.16 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e243 to 244 °F at 760 mmHg (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e-120.5 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFlash Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e73 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0.802 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMethyl isobutyl ketone appears as a clear colorless liquid with a pleasant odor.

With its characteristic penetrating fruity odor, this clear, colorless liquid offers excellent solvency for a wide range of polymers, resins, and organic compounds. Unlike lower-boiling ketones, MNAK provides a slow evaporation rate and high diluent tolerance, making it an indispensable component in high-solids systems where flow, levelling, and gloss are critical parameters. Industrial users rely on this solvent to achieve highly durable finishes in demanding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs an ACS Grade solvent, this material is manufactured to rigorous quality standards, ensuring minimal levels of impurities that could interfere with sensitive analytical procedures or precision manufacturing. The low density of 0.82 relative to water and its limited solubility of 0.4% in water make it highly effective for liquid-liquid extraction processes and specialized chemical synthesis. Alliance Chemical supplies this high-purity solvent to support laboratories, paint manufacturers, and chemical synthesis operations across North America.

ACS Grade materials must meet the strict analytical specifications defined by the American Chemical Society, which strictly limits trace metals, water content, and other organic impurities. Choosing a lower, industrial-grade alternative can introduce unwanted water or free acids into your system, which can severely compromise the curing chemistry of specialized coatings or skew the results of sensitive laboratory assays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor instance, in moisture-sensitive polyurethane formulations, any trace water contamination present in the solvent will react directly with isocyanates, leading to premature gassing, micro-foaming, and reduced physical strength of the cured film. Similarly, in high-precision chromatography or organic synthesis, trace impurities can cause baseline drift, catalyst poisoning, or unwanted side reactions. By utilizing our ACS Grade MNAK, operators eliminate these potential failure modes, ensuring consistent batch-to-batch performance and maintaining the strict compliance protocols required in industrial testing and manufacturing environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e110-43-0\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eC7H14O\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e114.19 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e300 °F at 760 mmHg (USCG, 1999)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e-31 °F (USCG, 1999)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFlash Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e102 °F (USCG, 1999)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0.82 (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eN-amyl methyl ketone appears as a clear colorless liquid.

As a high-purity ketone, it serves as an effective alternative to methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) where a slower evaporation rate is required to optimize surface flow and levelling. Alliance Chemical supplies this compound to meet the strict specifications of the American Chemical Society, ensuring consistent quality and low residue. Our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/methyl-n-propyl-ketone-mpk-acs\"\u003eMPK ACS Grade\u003c\/a\u003e is widely integrated into industrial coating systems, chemical intermediate production, and precise extraction processes across North America.

Because of its specific evaporation profile, it is particularly valued in high-solids paint formulations and lacquers where solvent balance is critical to prevent surface defects — helping to prevent issues like orange peel or solvent entrapment. It offers excellent solvency for a broad range of natural and synthetic resins, including acrylics, epoxies, and vinyl copolymers. By choosing Alliance Chemical as your distributor, you ensure access to dependable supply chains and rigorously managed lot purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy This Grade\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ACS Grade designation signifies that this Methyl n-Propyl Ketone meets or exceeds the strict analytical standards established by the American Chemical Society. This high-purity threshold is crucial because even trace impurities or moisture can disrupt sensitive chemical syntheses, catalytic reactions, and high-precision cleaning applications. In industrial coating and electronic manufacturing processes, utilizing a lower-grade solvent with variable purity introduces unacceptable risks, such as premature cross-linking, surface cloudiness, or residual moisture contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor operations requiring reproducible performance, standard commercial grades often fail to deliver the required low water content and minimal non-volatile residue. Choosing an inferior grade can lead to costly batch rejections, compromised adhesion in polymer films, and erratic chemical reaction kinetics. Utilizing our ACS Grade MPK ensures that your process parameters remain stable and predictable. This minimizes downtime and protects your equipment from corrosion or residue build-up that lower-grade materials might deposit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"chemical-profile\" data-source=\"canonical\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eChemical Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdl\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eCAS Number\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e107-87-9\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eChemical Formula\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eC5H10O\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMolecular Weight\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e86.13 g\/mol\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eBoiling Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e212 to 214 °F at 760 mmHg (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eMelting Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e-108 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eFlash Point\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e45 °F (NTP, 1992)\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eSpecific Gravity\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003e0.809 at 68 °F (USCG, 1999) - Less dense than water; will float\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003cdt\u003eAppearance\u003c\/dt\u003e\n\u003cdd\u003eMethyl propyl ketone appears as a clear colorless liquid with the odor of fingernail polish.
