Isopropyl Alcohol 99.8% Lab Grade

Isopropyl Alcohol 99.8% Lab Grade

Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) at the 99.8% concentration is hydrophobic and evaporates quickly making this concentration ideal for use with products and environments that are sensitive to water and residues. Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless and flammable liquid. Lab grade chemicals are high quality but unlike the ACS/USP grade the exact impurities are unknown making these great for lab and research purposes but not pure enough for food or drug uses.

Examples of when Isopropyl Alcohol 99.8% lab grade is the preferred concentration.

IPA 99.8% is used extensively in the electronics industry to remove impurities on surfaces during manufacturing.

IPA 99.8% is used in HPLC, GC, fluorescence, or TLC for characterization and quantification of chemicals.

For products and equipment related to food, cosmetics or pharmaceuticals Isopropyl Alcohol 98.9% ACS/USP grade is preferred.

Isopropyl Alcohol 99.8% Lab Grade is a clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. It carries CAS 67-63-0, molecular formula C3H8O, and an assay of 99.80%. It’s fully miscible in water, with a density of 0.785 to 0.787 g/mL at 20 °C, a boiling point of 83 °C (181.4 °F) and a flash point of 12.0 °C (53.6 °F). It’s a flammable liquid, so handle it with care. Lab Grade means it’s meant for lab and research work, not food or drug use. The Product Manuals tab holds the Safety Data Sheet, Technical Data Sheet, REACH Compliance Statement, PFAS/PFOS Free Statement, Allergen Statement, BPA Statement, TSE/BSE Declaration and Manufacturing Process Flow Chart. You’ll also find a Non-Irradiation Statement and a No Animal Testing Declaration. Certificates of Analysis sit in the tab next to it.

People reach for 99.8% isopropyl alcohol in lab and research work, as a reagent, and in electronics manufacturing, where it’s used to clean impurities off surfaces. It also shows up in varnishes. The usual headache is finding the right concentration, the paperwork to back it up, and a supplier who can ship a flammable liquid in the size you need. The Safety Data Sheet, Technical Data Sheet and Certificates of Analysis are available online. Here’s the plan. Pick your size and set up Autoship if you reorder often.
