What is extra neutral alcohol?

ENA, short for extra neutral alcohol, is ethanol with a minimum of 96% alcohol per volume. It can be made from raw materials such as sugarcane, molasses and grains like corn, rye, wheat, barley and rice. While widely used as the only existing food-grade alcohol, its denatured form is very popular in more industrial sectors such as pharmaceuticals and electronics.

Applications of extra neutral alcohol

ENA is a popular ingredient in many applications due to its solvability with many useful chemicals and antimicrobial properties. In the food and beverage industry, it is widely used as a base for spirits and as a solvent for colourants and flavours. In its denatured form, extra neutral alcohol is processed in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial products. For instance, it is commonly utilised as a solvent and the main ingredient in hand sanitisers.
