Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA)
Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless, flammable chemical compound with an alcohol odor. It is miscible in all proportions with water and organic liquids and has excellent solvent power for many organic and inorganic substances. It also evaporates quickly, leaves nearly zero oil traces, compared to ethanol. Thus, it is widely used as a solvent and as a cleaning fluid, especially for dissolving oils. Isopropyl alcohol was also used as a solvent for coatings or for industrial processes.
