Description

Isopropyl Alcohol CAS NO 67-63-0 is a versatile secondary alcohol widely recognized for its excellent solvent properties and rapid evaporation rate. This makes it a critical component in formulations requiring fast-drying, effective cleaning, and reliable disinfection. It is an essential raw material for manufacturers across the pharmaceutical, electronics, cosmetics, and industrial cleaning sectors. Its high purity grades are fundamental for ensuring product quality and process reliability in sensitive applications.

Application

• Disinfectant and Antiseptic Formulations: A key ingredient in hand sanitizers, surface disinfectants, and medical wipes due to its bactericidal and virucidal efficacy.
• Electronics Manufacturing: Used for precision cleaning and degreasing of circuit boards, optical components, and other sensitive electronic parts prior to assembly.
• Pharmaceutical Production: Serves as a solvent in topical preparations, ointments, and as a cleaning and disinfecting agent for equipment in GMP environments.
• Industrial Cleaning & Degreasing: An effective solvent for removing oils, greases, adhesives, and fluxes from metal, plastic, and glass surfaces.
• Cosmetics & Personal Care: Utilized as a solvent and carrier in products like aftershaves, lotions, and nail polish removers for its quick-drying characteristics.
• Laboratory & Research: Employed as a common laboratory solvent, extraction medium, and for sterilizing laboratory surfaces and equipment.
• Printing & Inks: Acts as a solvent and viscosity modifier in various ink systems and for cleaning printing presses.
• Chemical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of other chemicals, such as isopropyl acetate and various esters.

Quality Control

Our Isopropyl Alcohol is produced under stringent quality management systems. We offer various grades, including Industrial, USP, and Electronic grades, each meeting specific industry standards such as USP-NF, FCC, or custom specifications. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including assay, water content, and impurity profiling. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided to ensure full traceability and compliance with your requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, and open flames. Due to its highly volatile nature, keep containers tightly sealed when not in use to prevent evaporation and maintain purity. Store away from strong oxidizing agents.
