Description

What is 99% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA 99)?

Lab Pro’s Isopropyl Alcohol 99% (IPA 99%) is a high-purity, cleanroom-grade solvent widely used in pharmaceutical facilities, hospitals, cleanrooms, and electronics manufacturing. With its nearly anhydrous composition, IPA 99% provides rapid evaporation and residue-free performance, making it ideal for moisture-sensitive applications.

Unlike 70% IPA, which contains water for increased microbial efficacy, IPA 99% is valued for its quick-drying nature and minimal water content. This makes it especially effective in environments where speed, precision, and purity are critical.

Whether you are cleaning sensitive electronic components, performing sterilization prep, or using IPA as a solvent in research and synthesis, this 99% isopropyl alcohol gallon delivers unmatched performance for compliance-critical settings.

FAQs

When should I choose 99% IPA over 70%?

99% IPA is best for applications that require speedy evaporation and minimal water content, such as cleaning electronics, optical parts, and precision instruments. If your goal is disinfection, 70% IPA is more effective due to its longer surface contact time.

Can I dilute 99% IPA into 70% for disinfecting?

Yes. Mix about 7 parts IPA with 3 parts purified water to achieve a 70% solution. Always use clean, deionized water and proper containers if you are preparing it for sensitive lab or cleanroom use.

How should I store IPA 99%?

Store tightly sealed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat or ignition sources. Keep containers properly closed to prevent evaporation and contamination.

Is it safe to use IPA 99% on electronics?

Yes, but use caution. Apply IPA with lint-free wipes or swabs rather than pouring directly. Ensure devices are powered off and unplugged, and allow complete drying before use to avoid short-circuiting.

Does IPA 99% expire?

Properly stored, IPA 99% can remain effective for two to three years. However, exposure to air or improper sealing can reduce purity over time, so always check containers before use.

What safety precautions should I follow?

Use in a well-ventilated area, wear nitrile gloves and safety glasses, and avoid ignition sources. IPA 99% is highly flammable, so proper storage and handling are critical.

Is IPA 99% cleanroom safe?

Yes. IPA 99% is used in ISO-class cleanrooms worldwide, provided it’s handled with proper PPE and stored in compliant flammable storage cabinets.
