Information On Isopropyl Alcohol From PubChem

Isopropyl Alcohol is an isomer of propyl alcohol with antibacterial properties. Although the exact mechanism of isopropanol's disinfecting action is not known, it might kill cells by denaturing cell proteins and DNA, interfering with cellular metabolism, and dissolving cell lipo-protein membranes. Isopropanol is used in soaps and lotions as an antiseptic. Isopropyl alcohol or 2-propanol is an isomer of 1-propanol. It is a colorless liquid having disinfectant properties. It is used in the manufacture of acetone and its derivatives and as a solvent. Topically, it is used as an antiseptic. Small amounts of this alcohol are produced naturally by gut microbial flora. Read more here.

Isopropyl Alcohol Safety And Hazards

Vapors cause mild irritation of eyes and upper respiratory tract; high concentrations may be anesthetic. Liquid irritates eyes and may cause injury; harmless to skin; if ingested causes drunkenness and vomiting. HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Those substances designated with a (P) may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a fire. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water. Read more here.

Is 99% Isopropyl Alcohol Safe For Skin?

Isopropyl alcohol is readily absorbed through the skin, so spilling large amounts of IPA on the skin may cause accidental poisoning. Small amounts of IPA on the skin is generally not dangerous, but repeated skin exposure can cause itching, redness, rash, drying, and cracking. Prolonged skin contact may cause corrosion. Read more here.

About The Chemical Compound Called Isopropyl Alcohol

The chemical formula for isopropyl alcohol is C3H8O.  It is one of the most common members of the alcohol family of organic compounds.  You can clean your precious Apple Card by moistening a soft, microfiber cloth with isopropyl alcohol and gently wipe the card. It possesses physico-chemical and solvency properties similar to those of ethyl alcohol, making it completely miscible with water and soluble in most organic solvents.  To properly clean a dirty PS4 console, use a cloth lightly dampened with a 50:50 blend of water and isopropyl alcohol.

Isopropanol (CAS 67-63-0) has various synonyms, including isopropyl alcohol, 2 propanol, rubbing alcohol, or as an abbreviation IPA, and has the chemical configuration [(CH3)2CHOH]. Isopropyl alcohol is the least complex secondary alcohol, and is used in the manufacture and final product of a wide variety of household and industrial products such as antiseptics, antibacterial formulas, and detergents. Isopropanol is an isomer of propyl alcohol. At room temperature, isopropanol is a clear, colorless liquid with a distinct and pungent odor. Isopropanol is highly flammable and toxic to ingest; it should be handled with care. Buy Isopropyl Alcohol (99.8%, 99% And 70%) >

If your Fitbit Alta is not charging properly, wipe the pins on the charging points of the tracker and charger with a clean, lint-free cloth lightly dampened with isopropyl alcohol.  It dissolves many types of organic substances including cellulose, oils, gums as well as natural resins.  Unlike ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol has a bitter taste, some undesirable side effects and little ability to produce exhilaration.

Isopropyl alcohol was the first commercial synthetic alcohol. Learn the difference between alcohol, ethanol, denatured alcohol, rubbing alcohol, methanol and isopropyl alcohol here. Chemically pure (no water/ anhydrous) isopropyl alcohol (anhydrous) is an excellent, low-cost solvent, displaying a balance between alcohol, water and hydrocarbon characteristics.

Chemists at the Standard Oil Company of New Jersey (later Exxon Mobil) first produced isopropyl alcohol in 1920 while studying petroleum by-products. It is easily synthesized from the reaction of propylene with sulfuric acid, followed by hydrolysis.  In 1920, Standard Oil first produced isopropyl alcohol by hydrating propene. Its major use at the time was not rubbing alcohol but for oxidation to acetone, whose first major use was in World War I for the preparation of cordite, a smokeless, low explosive propellant.  It is primarily produced by combining water and propene in a hydration reaction or by hydrogenating acetone.  

Isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) is an acceptable cooking fuel. It can be purchased in 70 percent, 91 percent, and 99 percent strengths online in the USA from Lab Alley. The higher the percentage of alcohol, the cleaner isopropyl alcohol will burn.  Isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol with an alcohol content of 90% or higher is normally used in alcohol burners.

According to the University of California Santa Barbara, the pH of rubbing alcohol is about 5.5. This level can vary based on the dilution factor or the brand of the rubbing alcohol.  Isopropyl alcohol is amphiprotic, meaning that it can act as both a weak acid and a weak base.  Isopropyl alcohol is soluble in water in all proportions.  Isopropyl alcohol is soluble in water because it can form strong hydrogen bonds to the water.

Isopropanol (CAS 67-63-0) has various synonyms, including isopropyl alcohol, 2 propanol, rubbing alcohol, or as an abbreviation IPA, and has the chemical configuration [(CH3)2CHOH]. Isopropyl alcohol is the least complex secondary alcohol, and is used in the manufacture and final product of a wide variety of household and industrial products such as antiseptics, antibacterial formulas, and detergents. Isopropanol is an isomer of propyl alcohol. At room temperature, isopropanol is a clear, colorless liquid with a distinct and pungent odor. Isopropanol is highly flammable and toxic to ingest; it should be handled with care.

Because isopropyl alcohol can be consumed, it is subject to the excise tax laws that also apply to ethanol. All alcohols that can be consumed to achieve intoxicating effects in humans are subject to excise taxes, making other chemicals like heptane and hexane popular for chemical processes requiring the use of a generic solvent. Consuming isopropanol in the place of ethanol or an ethanol-derived spirit is extremely dangerous.

Isopropyl alcohol solutions with a higher concentration of isopropyl alcohol dry faster than those with lower isopropyl alcohol content. Most often, the diluting additive is water (H2O). For this reason, it is generally not recommended to use any isopropyl alcohol less than 99% pure to clean sensitive electronics.

Isopropyl Alcohol Structure

Isopropyl alcohol, also known as isopropanol, is a colorless, volatile and flammable liquid. It has a chemical formula of C3H8O: it has three carbon (C) atoms, eight hydrogen (H) atoms and one oxygen (O) atom. Its chemical formula can also be written as: C3H7OH, CH3CHOHCH3 or (CH3)2CHOH.

Isopropyl Alcohol Toxicity

Isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol, 2-propanol, propan-2-ol) is commonly used as a disinfectant, hand sanitizer, antifreeze, and solvent, and typically comprises 70 percent of "rubbing alcohol." People ingest isopropyl alcohol either unintentionally or intentionally to become intoxicated (ie, ethanol substitute) or to harm themselves. Isopropyl alcohol functions primarily as a central nervous system (CNS) inebriant and depressant, and its toxicity and treatment resemble that of ethanol. Fatality from isolated isopropyl alcohol toxicity is rare, but can result from injury due to inebriant effects, untreated coma with airway compromise, or rarely, cardiovascular depression and shock following massive ingestion. Supportive care can avert most morbidity and mortality. It is important to differentiate isopropyl alcohol poisoning from methanol and ethylene glycol, which are more dangerous. Read more here.

Isopropyl Alcohol vs Ethanol 

Isopropyl alcohol, often called IPA or isopropanol, is similar in function and structure to ethanol. It evaporates at a similar rate and destroys bacterial and viral cells by the same mechanism. However, it is not as effective at dehydrating living tissue and so is a better solution for disinfecting skin than ethanol. Read more here.

Synonyms for Isopropanol: Isopropyl Alcohol, 2 Propanol, Rubbing Alcohol, IPA, Propan-2-ol

Difference Between Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) 99% and 70%

In hospitals and pharmaceutical companies’ isopropyl alcohol is a common choice for a disinfectant. Isopropyl alcohol is available in many different purity grades, each one has a specific use and benefit. Some of the different grades are great for disinfectants and cleaning chemicals. Some grades can remove bacteria and impurities. Isopropyl alcohol is non corrosive to metal and are safe to use with plastic. They have a low impact on the climate. It is important to store it in a safe place because it is flammable. Isopropyl alcohol should be stored in a closed container in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. For more information about OHSA’s flammable liquids standards click here.

70% isopropyl alcohol is effective against microbial bacteria, fungi, and viruses. For the isopropyl alcohol to be effective against the bacteria and viruses there needs to be a significant presence of water in the solution. Solutions between 60% and 90% alcohol with 10–40% water work the most effectively. The higher concentrations do not work effectively due to their low water concentrations. The water acts as a catalyst and it helps denature the proteins of the cell membranes of vegetative cells. The water also slows down the time it takes to evaporate, and it increases the contact duration with the membrane.

99% isopropyl alcohol is commonly used as a solvent or a cleaning agent for products that are sensitive to water. It has a low flash point, so it evaporates quickly. Some common uses are in the computer and electronics industry. In this industry it is important that the cleaning agent evaporates immediately. They want to be able to quickly clean a spill as soon as possible and the 99% IPA acts perfectly for this use. It has a low shelf life because of rapid evaporation when exposed to air but its alcohol content has little dilution and a great consistency.
