Isopropanoliwuketshezi olungenambala, olusobala olunephunga elinamandla elicasulayo. Iwuketshezi oluvuthayo noluguquguqukayo ezingeni lokushisa elivamile. Isetshenziswa kabanzi ekukhiqizeni amakha, ama-solvents, ama-antifreezes, njll. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-isopropanol nayo isetshenziswa njengento eluhlaza yokuhlanganiswa kwamanye amakhemikhali.

Enye yezinto ezisetshenziswa kakhulu ze-isopropanol njenge-solvent. Ingancibilikisa izinto eziningi, njengama-resin, i-cellulose acetate, i-polyvinyl chloride, njll., ngakho-ke isetshenziswa kabanzi ekukhiqizeni izinto zokunamathisela, uyinki wokuphrinta, upende nezinye izimboni. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-isopropanol nayo isetshenziselwa ukukhiqizwa kwe-antifreeze. Iphuzu lokuqandisa le-isopropanol liphansi kunalelo lamanzi, ngakho-ke lingasetshenziswa njengesinqamuleli sezinga lokushisa eliphansi ekukhiqizeni ezinye izimboni zamakhemikhali. Ngaphezu kwalokho, isopropanol ingasetshenziselwa ukuhlanza. Inomphumela omuhle wokuhlanza emishinini nasezinsizeni ezahlukahlukene.

Ngaphezu kwalokhu kusetshenziswa okungenhla, i-isopropanol ingasetshenziswa futhi njengento eluhlaza yokuhlanganiswa kwamanye amakhemikhali. Isibonelo, ingasetshenziselwa ukuhlanganiswa kwe-acetone, okuyisisekelo esibalulekile esisetshenziswa embonini yamakhemikhali. I-Isopropanol ingasetshenziswa futhi ukuhlanganiswa nezinye izinhlanganisela eziningi, njenge-butanol, i-octanol, njll., ezinokusetshenziswa okuhlukile ezimbonini ezahlukene.

Ngokuvamile, i-isopropanol inezinhlobonhlobo zokusetshenziswa embonini yamakhemikhali nakwezinye izinkambu ezihlobene. Ngaphezu kwezicelo ezingenhla, ingasetshenziswa futhi ekukhiqizeni ama-polymer ahlukahlukene kanye nezingubo. Ngamafuphi, i-isopropanol inendima engenakushintshwa ekukhiqizeni kwethu nasekuphileni kwethu.
