ISopropanol uhlobo lotshwala, olwaziwa ngalo njengotshwala be-isopropyl, ngefomula lika-c3h8o. Kuwuketshezi olusobala olungenamibala, olunesisindo samangqamuzana esingu-60.09, kanye nobuningi be-0.789. I-SOPPRAPOPOL iyanyibilika emanzini futhi ayizingozi nge-ether, i-acetone ne-chloroform.

Njengohlobo lotshwala, i-soppropanol inenhlangano ethile. I-polarity yayo inkulu kunaleyo ye-ethanol kodwa ngaphansi kwaleyo ye-butanol. I-Sopropanol inokungezwani okuphezulu komhlaba kanye nezinga eliphansi lokuhwamuka. Kulula ukugcwala futhi kulula ukungazi kahle ngamanzi. I-Sopropanol inephunga elinamandla nokunambitheka okuqinile, okulula ukulingela ukucasuka emehlweni nasephehlalweni lokuphefumula.

I-Sopropanol iwuketshezi oluvuthayo futhi inokushisa okuphansi kokulahla. Ingasetshenziswa njenge-solvent yezakhi ze-organic ezahlukahlukene, njengamafutha emvelo namafutha ahleliwe. I-Sopropanol isetshenziswa kabanzi ekukhiqizweni kwamakha amakha, izimonyo, amakhamishini kanye neminye imboni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-sopropanol isetshenziswa futhi njenge-ejenti yokuhlanza, i-ejenti ye-antifreezing, njll.

ISopropanol inobuthi obuthile nobuhlungu. Ukuxhumana kwesikhathi eside ne-isopropanol kungadala ukucasuka esikhunjeni nasekulweni kwama-mucous sepheshana lokuphefumula. I-Sopropanol iyavutha futhi ingadala umlilo noma ukuqhuma ngesikhathi sokuhamba noma ukusetshenziswa. Ngakho-ke, lapho usebenzisa isopropanol, kufanele kuthathwe izinyathelo zokuphepha ukuze zigweme ukuxhumana nesikhumba noma ngamehlo, futhi ziqhele kude nemithombo yomlilo.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, isopropanol inokungcoliswa okuthile kwemvelo. Kungaba khona i-biodegred emvelweni, kepha futhi ingangena emanzini nomhlabathi ngokusebenzisa ama-drainage noma ukuvuza, okuzoba nomthelela othile emvelweni. Ngakho-ke, enqubweni yokusebenzisa i-sopropanol, ukunakwa kufanele kukhokhwe ekuvikelweni kwemvelo ukuvikela indawo yethu nokukhulisa okuqhubekayo komhlaba.
