METHYL BUTYL KETONE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Methyl butyl ketone, also known as 2-heptanone, is a colorless liquid with the chemical formula C₇H₁₄O, used in various industrial and chemical applications. It is primarily employed as a solvent in the production of coatings, adhesives, and inks, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Methyl butyl ketone is also used as a flavoring agent in food and beverages. Despite its utility, methyl butyl ketone can cause skin, eye, and respiratory irritation if not handled properly. Proper handling, storage, and safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential to ensure safe usage and prevent exposure.
