Isopropanol (IPA, CAS No. 67-63-0), also known as Isopropyl Alcohol (2-Propanol), is a widely used volatile alcohol solvent with excellent solvency, rapid evaporation, and good compatibility with water and organic compounds. It is extensively used in analytical chemistry, semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceutical research, chemical synthesis, electronics cleaning, and laboratory applications.
Due to its high purity availability, fast drying characteristics, and ability to dissolve a broad range of organic substances, Isopropanol is one of the most commonly used solvents for surface cleaning, sample preparation, material processing, and chemical research.
In semiconductor and electronic material industries, high-purity IPA plays an important role in wafer cleaning, photoresist processing, and contamination control. In laboratory research, IPA is widely used as a solvent, extraction medium, and cleaning reagent.
