Description

Isopropyl alcohol 70 percent is a clear, colorless solution widely used in industrial and laboratory environments. Recognized chemically as 2-propanol with the formula C3H7OH and a formula weight of 60.10, it demonstrates strong solvent properties suitable for cleaning and general-purpose applications. This grade of isopropyl alcohol is supplied in a 1-gallon container, offering a substantial quantity for extended use in various controlled environments.

The solution exhibits a flash point of 12°C (53°F), requiring careful storage and handling to minimize the risk of flammability. Proper storage conditions include maintaining the product between 15° and 30°C, away from heat sources, sparks, and open flames. The container should remain tightly closed when not in use to preserve quality and reduce the potential for evaporation or contamination.

This concentration of isopropyl alcohol is not intended for use as a disinfectant or antiseptic. Instead, it is designated for cleaning surfaces, preparing laboratory instruments, and functioning as a solvent in chemical processes. Its volatility and rapid evaporation make it effective for removing residues without leaving significant traces.
