Isopropyl alcohol (IPA)

Rubbing alcohol, also known as isopropyl alcohol (IPA), is a type of alcohol that is commonly used as an antiseptic or disinfectant. It is a clear, colourless liquid with a strong odour. Next to its use as rubbing alcohol, it is also a popular ethanol denaturant that is used either on its own or in a denaturant mix called Euro denatured.

Cleaning and disinfecting

It is commonly used to clean and disinfect surfaces, medical instruments, and equipment. Its antiseptic properties make it effective in killing bacteria, viruses, and fungi.
First aid

Rubbing alcohol is often used as a topical antiseptic to clean minor cuts, wounds, and scrapes. It helps prevent infection and can be used to sterilize equipment used for medical procedures.
Skin preparation

It is used to cleanse the skin before injections, blood draws, or other medical procedures to reduce the risk of contamination.
Cooling and evaporative purposes

Rubbing alcohol has a cooling effect when applied to the skin. It evaporates quickly, which can provide a cooling sensation and help relieve minor muscle aches.
Electronics and household cleaning

Due to its rapid evaporation and low water content, rubbing alcohol is commonly used to clean electronics, remove stains, and sanitise household surfaces.
