Description:

Isopropyl Alcohol 99% (IPA) is a highly functional alcohol solvent, with a useful combination of attributes:

• • • IPA is a non-toxic alcohol.
    • As a solvent, it has the rare ability to be miscible with, or go into, both water and oil.
    • IPA is relatively economical.
    • It is an antiseptic.

In appearance, Isopropyl Alcohol is a clear liquid with a slight odor. Usually, industrial applications use industrial grade (technical grade) IPA. However, laboratories and QA applications often use Isopropyl Alcohol 99% ACS Reagent. Reagent grade product has been purified to remove common constituents that may be present in industrial grade material.

Applications:

Isopropyl Alcohol 99% has a number of industrial applications. Commonly, it is used in paints & coatings, and as a cleaning solvent.

• • • Paints & Coatings: IPA is used as a diluent, holding the resin in suspension. It has a medium to slow rate of evaporation which lends itself well to this application.
    • Cleaning Solvent: IPA effectively cleans off inks, adhesives, oils, gums, gasoline, grease, and etc. Sticky particles can be easily wiped away as they are brought into a solution. IPA leaves no film behind.
    • Extractant: IPA extracts oils from plant fiber.
    • Antiseptic Cleaner: IPA is used as an antiseptic cleaner in applications that require a non-toxic disinfectant. For example, if bleach were used in a greenhouse, the plants would be destroyed.
