Description
Isopropyl Alcohol 99% – Fast-Evaporating Solvent for Precision Cleaning
Isopropyl Alcohol 99%, also known as IPA, is a clear, colorless, volatile liquid widely used as a solvent and cleaning agent. At this concentration, IPA evaporates quickly, making it especially suitable for electronics, optical equipment, and industrial components where water presence must be minimized.
While lower concentrations are preferred for general disinfection, 99% IPA is ideal for applications requiring rapid drying, residue-free cleaning, and effective removal of oils, flux, and contaminants.
