What Is An isopropyl alcohol IPA (cas no 67 63 0)?
Isopropyl alcohol solution is a solution containing isopropyl alcohol (also known as 2-propanol, chemical formula (CH₃)₂CHOH). Isopropyl alcohol is an organic solvent characterized by being colorless, volatile, and flammable. Mixing isopropyl alcohol with water yields an isopropyl alcohol solution.
isopropyl alcohol properties
IPA typically appears as a colorless or pale yellow liquid with a strong pungent odor and high volatility. It ignites readily and produces flames. While miscible with many organic compounds, it exhibits poor miscibility with water.
