Di Iso Butyl Ketone (also known as DIBK, 2,6-Dimethyl-4-heptanone, Isovalerone, and Isobutyl ketone) is a clear, colourless, stable liquid with a mild, sweet odour reminiscent of peppermint. It is miscible with most organic compounds, is immiscible with water, and has the formula C9H18O. It is a solvent with a high-boiling point and which is also slow-evaporating and low density. These properties make it a very useful product across a range of industries.
