use
solvent application: Butanone is an excellent solvent, mainly used to dissolve resin, rubber, wax, grease, paint and dye. It is widely used in the coatings industry, especially in polyurethane coatings, nitro coatings and acrylic coatings play a key role. The rapid volatility of butanone allows it to speed up the drying process of coatings, thereby increasing production efficiency.
Chemical intermediates: butanone is an important intermediate in the manufacture of a variety of chemical products. For example, it can be used in the synthesis of methyl ethyl ketoxime (MEKO), an important preservative and antioxidant. Butanone can also be used in the synthesis of drugs, fragrances and pesticides.
Electronics industry: butanone is used as a cleaning agent for cleaning electronic components and circuit boards.
In the field of medicine: butanone can be used as a raw material for the manufacture of certain drugs, such as acetaminophen.
Other applications: Butanone is also used in the production of certain chemical products, such as acrylic resins, alkyd resins, etc.
