Description
- Methyl Ethyl Ketone, MEK, is a low boiling, fast evaporating solvent is a colourless, stable liquid, partially miscible with water.
- Methyl Ethyl Ketone displays exceptionally good solvency for most resinous materials including epoxy resins, nitro-cellulose, ethyl cellulose, cellulose-aceto-butyrate, alkyd, polyester, polyurethane, acrylic resins, vinyl polymers and copolymers. Also readily dissolved are practically all synthetic and natural resins commonly employed in the formulation of printing inks, lacquers, and other types of coatings
- In addition, its complete misciblility with most other solvent as well as alcohols and hydrocarbon diluent makes Methyl Ethyl Ketone a highly desirable and versatile solvent in surface coating applications.
