Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless and flammable chemical compound. The mixture of ethanol and acetone has a very strong odor. In the chemical sector, isopropyl alcohol is the most used after ethanol. The percentage is pure 99,6. It has a wide usage area. In addition to detergent production, it is used in textile chemicals, pharmaceutical chemicals, cologne making, leather industry, thinner production. In addition, it is used as a solvent in paint production, as a polish after polishing of vehicle paint and as a degreasing agent for the surface of ceramic products. It is also used for cleaning of scratchable materials such as camera, television and eyeglass.

Isopropyl alcohol is a very strong disinfectant. It is also used in the production of alcohol-based hand disinfectants. It is used in the percentage 70, if it is desired to completely destroy the germs. Because it is very volatile if used at high concentrations, it loses its disinfectant properties at low concentrations.

Isopropyl alcohol is inexpensive and can cause rapid intoxication if inhaled. Isopropyl alcohol is also used in the context of personal hygiene products such as alcoholic wipes, certain cleaning products and hand cleaning materials. May cause poisoning if absorbed through skin.

Briefly, isopropyl alcohol is used as the main ingredient in many cleaning products. Alcohol has the ability to fix microorganisms to the surface and therefore has always been part of the cleaning processes. Isopropyl alcohol is not effective on hydrophilic viruses. Ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol, commonly used as disinfectants, have similar properties.

Isopropyl alcohol analysis is also performed in authorized laboratories within the scope of physical and chemical analysis of disinfectants. These laboratories are accredited by local and international accreditation institutions and carry out various tests, measurements, analyzes and evaluations.

 

In these studies, globally accepted test methods and test criteria are complied with and the standards issued by domestic and foreign organizations are taken as basis.
