Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
The Isopropyl Alcohol, (commonly called propan-2-ol, isopropanol or 2-propanol), on offer here is 99.8% min purity grade. IPA is a solvent used in coatings or in other industrial processes. IPA can also be used for clean-up of spraying equipment, versatile product for both soap and cosmetic makers etc. IPA is an effective sterilising agent, disinfectant, hand sanitiser and rubbing alcohol antiseptic (70% solution in water) - 7 parts IPA to 3 parts water. IPA is widely used in hospitality and medical sectors as a effective disinfectant against the influenza and other viruses.
Isopropyl alcohol dissolves a wide range of non-polar compounds like wax, polish, ink and some resins. IPA is miscible in water and many organic solvents, like esters, ketones, and other alcohols. It also evaporates quickly, leaves nearly zero oil traces, compared to ethanol, and is relatively non-toxic, compared to alternative solvents. Thus, it is used widely as a solvent and as a cleaning fluid, especially for dissolving oils. Together with ethanol, n-butanol, and methanol, it belongs to the group of alcohol solvents. IPA is a colorless, flammable chemical compound (chemical formula CH3CHOHCH3) with a strong sweet alcohol odor.
