Emphakathini wanamuhla, utshwala bungumkhiqizo ojwayelekile wasendlini otholakala emakhishini, imigoqo nezinye izindawo zokubutha ezenhlalo. Kodwa-ke, umbuzo ovame ukuvela ukuthisowopropanolkuyafana notshwala. Ngenkathi bobabili behlobene, akuyona into efanayo. Kulesi sihloko, sizohlola umehluko phakathi kwe-sopropanol notshwala ukusula noma yikuphi ukudideka.

I-SOPPRAPOPOL, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-isopropyl alcohol noma i-2-propanol, iwuketshezi olungenamibala, oluvuthayo. Inephunga elinesici esimnene futhi lisetshenziswa kabanzi njenge-solvent ezinhlotsheni ezahlukahlukene zezimboni. I-Sopropanol nayo isetshenziswa futhi njenge-ejenti yokuhlanza, i-distinfectant, kanye nokugcina. Emphakathini wezesayensi, kusetshenziswa njenge-activation ekuhlolweni kwe-organic.

Ngakolunye uhlangothi, utshwala, ngokwengeziwe i-ethanol noma i-ethyl alcohol, luhlobo lotshwala oluvame ukuhlotshaniswa nokuphuza. Kukhiqizwa ukuvutshelwa kukashukela emvuzweni futhi kuyingxenye esemqoka yotshwala. Ngenkathi isetshenziswa njenge-solvent kanye ne-ejenti yokuhlanza efana ne-isopropanol, umsebenzi wawo oyinhloko uwumuthi wokuzijabulisa no-anesthetic.

Umehluko omkhulu phakathi kwe-sopropanol notshwala kulele esakhiweni sabo samakhemikhali. I-Sopropanol inefomula ye-molecular ye-C3H8O, kuyilapho i-ethanol inefomula ye-C2H6O. Lo mehluko ekwakheni uletha izakhiwo zawo ezihlukile zomzimba nezamakhemikhali. Isibonelo, isopropanol inendawo ephakeme ebilayo nokuguquguquka okuphansi kune-ethanol.

Mayelana nokusetshenziswa kwabantu, i-sopropanol iyingozi lapho ingeniswe futhi akufanele idliwe njengoba kungadala izingqinamba ezinkulu zempilo. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, i-ethanol idliwe emhlabeni wonke ngotshwala njengeziphuzo ezinotshwala njenge-lubricang yezenhlalo kanye nezinzuzo zayo zezempilo ngokulinganisela.

Ukufingqa, ngenkathi i-sopropanol notshwala babelana ngokufana okuthile ekusebenziseni kwabo njengezixazululo nama-ejenti okuhlanza, ziyizinto ezahlukene ngokwesakhiwo sazo samakhemikhali, izakhiwo zabantu, kanye nokusetshenziswa kwabantu. Ngenkathi i-ethanol iyisidakamizwa senhlalo esidliwayo emhlabeni wonke, i-isopropanol akufanele idliwe njengoba kungaba yingozi empilweni yabantu.
