It leaves zero residue, making it ideal for optics, thermal paste removal, and industrial applications. Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9% 2.5L<\/p>\n<p>Key Uses for 99.9% Isopropyl Alcohol<br \/> Electronics Maintenance: Cleans sensitive components, motherboards, circuit boards, and connectors without causing shorts. It is used to remove thermal paste from CPUs\/GPUs.<br \/> Industrial\/Household Degreaser: Removes oils, grease, grime, and adhesives (sticker residue).<br \/> Precision Cleaning: Cleans camera sensors, optical equipment, and fiber optic connectors.<br \/> Surface Preparation: Used as a panel wipe to remove oils\/wax before painting,, coating, or polishing.<br \/> Laboratories and Manufacturing: Used for cleaning, sterilizing tools, and in molecular biology to purify samples.<br \/> Nail Industry: Cleans off the sticky, inhibited layer of gel nails.<br \/> De-icing: Acts as a de-icer for windows and windshields. <\/p>\n<p>Safety and Handling<br \/> Flammable: Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.<br \/> Ventilation: Use only in well-ventilated areas to avoid dizziness.<br \/> Safety: Wear gloves to prevent skin irritation; avoid ingestion. <\/p>\n<p>Note on Disinfection<br \/> While 99.9% IPA is a powerful solvent, 70% Isopropyl Alcohol is generally considered more effective for disinfecting skin and surfaces because the higher water content allows for better cell penetration and slower evaporation. <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9% 2.5L<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Analytical grade solvent, with a combination of value and purity for general laboratory and stockroom use.<\/p>\n<p>Isopropanol is a common laboratory and household chemical with the formula CH3CHOHCH3.<\/p>\n<p>It is a colorless and highly flammable alcohol.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>vapor density<\/td>\n<td>2.1 (vs air)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>vapor pressure<\/td>\n<td>33 mmHg ( 20 \ufffd\ufffdC)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>44 mmHg ( 25 \ufffd\ufffdC)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>product line<\/td>\n<td>BioReagent<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>assay<\/td>\n<td>\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd99.5%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>form<\/td>\n<td>liquid<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>autoignition temp.<\/td>\n<td>750 \ufffd\ufffdF<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>expl. lim.<\/td>\n<td>2.0-12.7 %, 93 \ufffd\ufffdC<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>impurities<\/td>\n<td>\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd0.2% water<br \/> water<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>color<\/td>\n<td>colorless<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>refractive index<\/td>\n<td><i>n<\/i>20\/D 1.377 (lit.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>bp<\/td>\n<td>82 \ufffd\ufffdC (lit.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>mp<\/td>\n<td>\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd89.5 \ufffd\ufffdC (lit.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>solubility<\/td>\n<td>water: soluble (completely)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>density<\/td>\n<td>0.785 g\/mL at 25 \ufffd\ufffdC (lit.)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>suitability<\/td>\n<td>suitable for precipitation of nucleic acids<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>storage temp.<\/td>\n<td>room temp<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>SMILES string<\/td>\n<td>CC(C)O<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>InChI<\/td>\n<td>1S\/C3H8O\/c1-3(2)4\/h3-4H,1-2H3<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>InChI key<\/td>\n<td>KFZMGEQAYNKOFK-UHFFFAOYSA-N<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Isopropyl Alcohol 99.9%, 2.5L<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"content-type":""},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[24910],"product_tag":[24397],"class_list":["post-73222","product","type-product","status-publish","product_cat-alcohol","product_tag-isopropyl-alcohol-99-9-2-5l","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/73222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=73222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=73222"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=73222"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/chestxray.co.za\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=73222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
