Description

MEKO, or Methyl Ethyl Ketoxime, is a chemical compound commonly used as an anti-skinning agent in various industrial applications, particularly in paints, coatings, and adhesives. It functions by inhibiting the formation of a surface skin on these materials when exposed to air, thus preserving their quality and usability. MEKO is known for its ability to prevent the premature drying or curing of these products during storage or application, helping to maintain their effectiveness and shelf life. Additionally, it serves as a stabilizer, extending the durability and performance of the materials it is incorporated into. Despite its utility, proper handling and ventilation are essential when working with MEKO, as it can be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin.
