Isopropyl alcohol (also named as propan-2-ol, 2-propanol, iso, isopro, isoprop, rubbing alcohol, or the abbreviation IPA) is a common name for isopropanol, a colorless, flammable chemical compound with a strong odor. It is the simplest example of a secondary alcohol,the alcohol carbon is attached to two other carbons. It is an isomer of propanol.Sterilizing pads typically contain a 60-70% solution of isopropanol in water. Isopropyl alcohol is also commonly used as a cleaner and solvent in industry.
Isopropyl alcohol vapor is more dense than air and is highly flammable with a very wide combustible range. Isopropyl alcohol should be kept away from heat and open flame. When mixed with air or other oxidizers it can explode through deflagration.Isopropyl alcohol has also been reported to form explosive peroxides.Like many organic solvents, long term application to the skin can cause defatting.
