General description

2-Propanol is a secondary alcohol. It has been tested as a substitute to fuel for use in various fuel cells. CuO powder dissolved in 2-propanol has been used for the laser ablation assisted synthesis of Cu colloids. Suspension of 2-propanol with Zn(NO3)2 has been employed for the fabrication of titanium dioxide-coated stainless steel (P25-TiO2/SS) photoanode coated with uniformly thick layer of P25-TiO2. This photoanode was used for the electrochemical photocatalytic (ECPC) degradation process.

Application

2-Propanol (Isopropanol, Isopropyl alcohol) may be used for washing during the synthesis of PolyHIPEs (Polymerized high internal phase emulsion monoliths) of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) and styrene/divinylbenzene.
