异佛尔酮 High Purity Isophorone (IPHO)

Isophorone (IPHO) is a colorless to slightly yellowish, high-boiling cyclic unsaturated ketone with a characteristic mint- or camphor-like odor. It is insoluble in water but completely miscible with most organic solvents. Due to its unique chemical structure, Isophorone exhibits exceptional dissolving power for various synthetic resins, including epoxy, polyurethane, fluorocarbon, phenolic, and acrylic resins. Widely applied as a premium high-boiling, slow-evaporating solvent (tail solvent), it effectively enhances the leveling, gloss, and adhesion properties of industrial coatings while preventing surface defects during oven baking.

Technical Specifications & Physical Properties

Core Applications

• Industrial Coatings & Baking Finishes: Universally formulated as a premium high-boiling solvent in automotive OEM coatings, coil coatings, container finishes, and metal packaging paints to control evaporation speed and ensure uniform film leveling.

• Screen Printing Inks: Functions as an advanced retarding solvent in plastics and screen printing inks, eliminating screen clogging issues and enhancing print definition.

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a powerful co-solvent and formulation carrier in emulsifiable concentrates (EC) for agricultural crop protection products.

• Chemical Intermediates: Serves as a vital building block for synthesizing Isophorone Diisocyanate (IPDI) and Isophorone Diamine (IPDA), which are essential for manufacturing light-stable polyurethanes.

Packing: Supplied in 190 KGS net weight iron or galvanized drums, or via bulk ISO TANK containers for large volume orders.

Storage: Classified as a combustible liquid. Store strictly in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated dedicated chemical facility. Keep far away from ignition sources, sparks, open flames, and oxidizing substances. Keep container tightly closed to prevent evaporation.
