Isopropyl Alcohol Use in Electronics

Published date: 11 June 2021

Back to Article Listing

Isopropyl alcohol use is the most common in the production of electronics and medical devices. It’s applied in various concentrations to get the required cleaning and disinfection results. Because it’s combustible and can be a health threat if used inappropriately, it should only be utilised in well-ventilated areas.

Because it evaporates and dries almost instantly, IPA is the finest compound to use on water-sensitive equipment including computers, laptops, and other electronic gadgets. The percentage on the label denotes the amount of alcohol per volume; the higher the percentage, the higher the alcohol level and the faster it evaporates.

Because of its decreased water content, 99 percent isopropyl alcohol is an excellent cleaner for sticky residues, grease, and grime. Rubbing alcohol concentrations of roughly 70% have a higher water content, stay on surfaces slightly longer, and are more effective in disinfection.
