Description
Transportation and Precautions

IPA isopropanol (propan-2-ol, isopropyl alcohol) – is an organic chemical compound from the group of aliphatic alcohols, the simplest secondary alcohol with one substituent isomer, propan-1-ol.

IPA is used in industry as an organic solvent, and is also commonly used as a solvent and carrier for HPLC chromatography.

Isopropanol is a reagent valued in the chemical industry in chemical synthesis processes that introduces an isopropyl and isopropoxy group.

In preventive medicine, it is particularly desirable in the form of a 70% aqueous solution as an antiseptic liquid, commonly used to disinfect people and surfaces.

12% Propan-2-ol (IPA) solution is used in printing in offset printing in moisturizing solutions.

As a cheaper substitute for ethanol and methanol, it is used in fluids for cleaning precision optics. Also in other industries, it is widely used for cleaning magnetic heads, disk drives, rubber rollers, precision mechanics devices. Its particular advantage in such situations is the fact that it is completely chemically inert to most metals and plastics.

In precision mechanics and renovation of technical monuments, it is used to remove lubricants and other impurities, including resin waxes, fats, including natural ones, as well as inks and dried printing inks.

Often used as a fuel additive due to its water-dispersing properties in propellant mixtures, which prevents the formation of ice plugs in fuel lines.
