Methyl ethyl ketone, also referred to as MEK or butanone, is a chemical substance. This ketone is a colourless liquid with a powerful, sweet aroma that is comparable to acetone and butterscotch. It is frequently used as a commercial solvent because it is miscible in water.

2-Butanol is used as the starting ingredient in the dehydrogenation process to make methyl ethyl ketone. Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK) is produced when 2-butanol is dehydrogenated in the presence of a catalyst like copper, zinc, or bronze.

China is one of the leading country in the methyl ethyl ketone market, with the highest market share. On the other hand, the top importers are South Korea, the United States, Vietnam, and Germany.
