Mixed Methylcyclohexanone (Isomer Mixture) 98% CAS NO. 1331-22-2 Industrial Grade
Scope of Application
· This product is widely used as a high-boiling solvent in alkyd resins, vinyl chloride polymers, nitrocellulose lacquers, acrylic coatings, and polyurethane systems where cost-effective solvency is required.
· It serves as an effective solvent in industrial cleaning formulations, paint strippers, and degreasing agents due to its strong solvency for oils, greases, and polymers.
· It can be used as a reaction medium for polymerization processes and organic synthesis where a stable, high-boiling ketone solvent is needed.
· It is also employed in printing inks, adhesives, and as a coalescing agent in water-based coating formulations.
Product Features
This Mixed Methylcyclohexanone is produced via advanced catalytic hydrogenation of mixed cresols or controlled oxidation technologies, ensuring consistent isomer distribution and batch-to-batch stability. With a total purity exceeding 98% (verified by GC analysis), it offers reliable and cost-effective performance in demanding industrial applications. The mixture typically contains approximately 30-40% 2-methylcyclohexanone, 30-40% 3-methylcyclohexanone, and 20-30% 4-methylcyclohexanone, providing a balanced combination of solvent characteristics from all three isomers. It features low water content and strict control of organic impurities, ensuring consistent performance across different production batches. The product maintains a favorable boiling point range (165-170°C) suitable for high-temperature processes while providing excellent chemical stability under recommended storage conditions. Advanced analytical instruments including Gas Chromatography (GC) are employed to ensure the product meets stringent industrial standards.
Packaging and Transportation
· The products are packaged in new galvanized iron drums, stainless steel drums, or ISO tanks to ensure container integrity and product purity.
· Customized packaging options are available upon customer request to accommodate specific shipping volumes and requirements.
Safety and Storage
· Store in a cool, well-ventilated warehouse away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and open flames.
· Keep container tightly sealed and properly grounded when handling to prevent static discharge. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents, strong bases, and reducing agents.
· The storage area should be equipped with appropriate fire-fighting equipment (alcohol-resistant foam, dry powder, carbon dioxide) and spill containment materials.
· Use explosion-proof electrical equipment and ventilation systems in storage and handling areas.
· Wear appropriate personal protective equipment including chemical-resistant gloves, safety goggles, and protective clothing when handling.
