Isopropyl alcohol, particularly in solutions between 60% and 90% alcohol with 10 – 40% purified water, is rapidly antimicrobial against bacteria, fungi, and viruses. Once alcohol concentrations drop below 50%, usefulness for disinfection drops sharply. Notably, higher concentrations of alcohol don’t generate more desirable bactericidal, virucidal, or fungicidal properties.
Mixtures
Ethanol 95% W/W
Ethyl Acetate 5% W/W
Ethanol 95% denatured can be used in cleaning agent,medical disinfectant,cosmetics and specimen preservation
Application
For use in the pulp and paper industry and in leather processing to remove hair from hides.Sodium sulfide may be used in the making of colors and dyes, unclog drains, in cleaning products (for the oven and bathroom), hair products, dishwasher detergent, and airbags in cars,cement
