Ethanol denatured 5 Liter 99.8+%

Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol or just alcohol, is a colorless liquid produced by the fermentation of sugars and carbohydrates. It is one of the oldest and most used organic connections in the world. Ethanol has a wide range of applications, ranging from industrial and commercial applications to medical and domestic use. One of the most important applications of ethanol is as fuel. It is used as an alternative fuel for gasoline in vehicles, mainly in the form of E10 (a mixture of 10% ethanol and 90% gasoline) or E85 (a mixture of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline). Ethanol as fuel has various advantages, including reduced greenhouse gas emissions and a reduced dependence on fossil fuels. In addition, ethanol is widely used in the pharmaceutical and medical industry. It is used as a solvent for extracting and producing various medicines, such as antibiotics, painkillers and antiseptics. Ethanol is also used as a preservative in some medicines and as a disinfectant for medical instruments and surfaces. In the chemical industry, ethanol is used as a raw material for the production of various chemicals, including acetaldehyde, ethylene and ethylene oxide. These chemicals are in turn used in the production of plastics, solvents, resins and other industrial products. Although ethanol is a versatile and useful substance, it is important to observe the necessary safety instructions when handling and storing them. Ethanol is flammable and can easily ignite when exposing to open fire, sparks or heat sources. It is therefore essential to store ethanol in a safe place, away from inflammatory sources. When working with ethanol it is also important to wear personal protective equipment, such as gloves and safety glasses, to prevent contact with the skin and eyes. The breathing of ethanol vapors can also be harmful, so it is advisable to work in a well -ventilated room or to wear a breathing mask if necessary. In addition, it is important to keep ethanol out of the reach of children and pets, since it is a toxic substance with intake. In the event of an accidental intake, medical assistance must be requested immediately. In short, Ethanol is a versatile substance with various applications, ranging from fuel to pharmaceutical and chemical industry. However, it is crucial to take the necessary safety measures when handling and storing ethanol to prevent accidents and damage.
