Rubbing alcohol is essential in a first-aid kit as it helps in disinfecting minor cuts before bandaging. It's also ideal in sterilizing surfaces, such as breakroom tables. Isopropyl alcohol with higher strengths safely lifts tough stains and cleans laptop screens. Check out the healthcare supplies category at Staples and choose an effective cleaning and disinfecting substance for your needs.

Rubbing alcohol ensures effective cleaning
Most businesses and households use alcohol to carry out tough cleaning tasks. These include removing permanent and stubborn marker stains. It's important to keep a bottle of alcohol with other cleaning chemicals. Isopropyl alcohol is also an inexpensive and smart choice for cleaning computer equipment, such as laptop screens. This is because it evaporates quickly. In medical organizations, the alcohol comes in handy when sterilizing equipment. Alcohol is also convenient for cleaning shared keyboards, breakroom tables, and other surfaces where germs are likely to collect.

Rubbing alcohol works as a disinfectant
It works well in an office or home first-aid kit to prevent infections caused by burns, bruises, or minor cuts after accidents. The alcohol also functions as an antiseptic by killing bacteria on contact. Rubbing alcohol works well in sterilizing the skin before an injection or before putting on a bandage. It's wise to keep alcohol at hand especially in an organization with employees who require routine shots.

What is the right strength of isopropyl alcohol?
Alcohol is available in diluted form with strengths ranging from 70 to 99 percent. The 70 percent concentration is the optimal strength for minor sanitization tasks and first aid. Higher strengths are ideal when you require a solvent that evaporates fast. Rubbing alcohol with high strength is often found in factories for cleaning thin paint and machine parts. 

What are other uses for rubbing alcohol?
Smelling alcohol on cloth may help relieve nausea. Additionally, alcohol helps to enhance the flow of blood in aching body parts. Apply alcohol to a small area for a cooling sensation and to ease the pain. Isopropyl alcohol also works in cleaning chrome surfaces, sinks, and makeup brushes. Spraying some alcohol on smelly shoes helps to remove the bad odors.

Makeup and skin oils tend to dirty up phones. Use alcohol to get rid of this dirt and disinfect the phone. Create a homemade disinfectant using the rubbing alcohol. This allows wiping or spraying of permeable materials such as granite and quartz. Soak jewelry in alcohol then wipe it with a clean cloth to provide a shine. Wiping the neck using a cloth or cotton pad soaked in alcohol helps to keep shirts clean longer. Alcohol also works effectively in cleaning stainless steel products at home.

What is the chemical composition of rubbing alcohol?
The main ingredient is isopropyl alcohol. This alcohol mixture is useful as an antiseptic. 70 percent of rubbing alcohol contains isopropyl alcohol or absolute alcohol. The remaining percentage consists of perfume oils, denaturants, and water. Rubbing alcohol may also contain 97.5 to 100 percent of denatured ethyl alcohol.
