    Packing & Storage
    Packing Butanone is packaged in a 2.5-liter amber glass bottle with a secure screw cap and hazard warning labels clearly displayed.
    Container Loading (20′ FCL) Container Loading (20′ FCL) for Butanone typically involves secure packaging in drums or IBCs, with a maximum load of around 16-20 metric tons.
    Shipping Butanone (methyl ethyl ketone) should be shipped in tightly sealed containers, away from heat, sparks, and open flames due to its high flammability. Transport must comply with regulations for hazardous materials, using appropriate UN-approved packaging. Proper labeling and documentation are required to ensure safe handling during transit.
    Storage Butanone should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, open flames, and incompatible materials such as oxidizing agents. Keep the container tightly closed and out of direct sunlight. Use containers made of approved materials and ensure proper labeling. Store at temperatures below 25°C and prevent the buildup of vapors to reduce fire and health hazards.
    Shelf Life Butanone typically has a shelf life of 12-24 months when stored in tightly sealed containers, away from heat, moisture, and sunlight.
    Application of Butanone

    Purity 99.5%: Butanone with purity 99.5% is used in pharmaceutical manufacturing, where it ensures high extraction efficiency and product purity.

    Boiling Point 79.6°C: Butanone with a boiling point of 79.6°C is used in resin formulation, where rapid evaporation accelerates curing time.

    Viscosity 0.43 mPa·s: Butanone with viscosity 0.43 mPa·s is used in adhesive blending, where optimal flow characteristics improve application consistency.

    Moisture Content <0.05%: Butanone with moisture content below 0.05% is used in ink production, where low water levels prevent ink dilution and enhance print quality.

    Stability Temperature 35°C: Butanone stable up to 35°C is used in coatings manufacturing, where thermal stability maintains uniform film formation.

    Density 0.805 g/cm³: Butanone with density 0.805 g/cm³ is used in paint formulation, where specific gravity control ensures homogeneous dispersion of pigments.

    Residue After Evaporation <0.002%: Butanone with residue after evaporation less than 0.002% is used in electronics cleaning, where minimal residue ensures circuit reliability.

    Water Miscibility: Butanone exhibiting partial water miscibility is used in polymer processing, where controlled solvent blending facilitates copolymerization.

    Refractive Index 1.3788: Butanone with refractive index 1.3788 is used in optical film casting, where precise light transmission properties are achieved.
