    Description

    General description

    Ethanol (denatured), a primary alcohol, is a constituent of hairspray, disinfectants and cosmetics.[6] It can be synthesized either from molasses by fermentation or by hydration of ethylene.[5] It is made non-consumable by the addition of denaturants.[6]

    The product is denatured ethyl alcohol and it contains following as denaturant:
    • 1% ethyl acetate
    • 1% hydrocarbons
    • 1% methyl isobutyl ketone
    • 5% methanol
    Ethanol, a primary alcohol is an important raw material for the synthesis of various compounds. It can be synthesized either from molasses by fermentation or by hydration of ethylene. It acts as a hydrogen source and reaction medium during the transfer hydrogenation of carbonyl compounds in the presence of sodium hydroxide.[2] The impact of ethanol/water fumigation on the performance of diesel engines has been studied.[3] Denatured alcohol is also referred to as industrial methylated spirit.[4]

    Application

    Ethyl alcohol (denatured ethanol) may be used to compose the Nital etchant for use in microstructural analysis.[1]
