Sowopropanol, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-isopropyl alcohol noma i-2-propanol, uketshezi olungenamibala, oluvuthayo ngephunga elithile. Kuyinto esetshenziswa kakhulu yamakhemikhali yamakhemikhali ethola izinhlelo zokusebenza ezinhlobonhlobo zezimboni, kufaka phakathi ama-Pharmaceutical, izimonyo kanye nezimboni zokufaka ukudla. Kulesi sihloko, sizokwehla sijule egameni elijwayelekile le-isopropanol kanye nokusetshenziswa kwalo okuhlukahlukene nezakhiwo.

Igama elithi "Sopropanol" libhekisela ekilasini lamakhompiyutha amakhemikhali aqukethe amaqembu afanayo asebenza kanye nesakhiwo samangqamuzana njenge-ethanol. Umehluko ulele eqinisweni lokuthi i-sopropanol iqukethe iqembu elengeziwe le-methyl elinamathiselwe ku-atom yekhabhoni eduze kweHydroxyl Group. Leli qembu elengeziwe le-methyl linikeza izakhiwo ezahlukahlukene zomzimba nezekhemikhali eziqhathaniswa ne-ethanol.

I-Sopropanol ikhiqizwa ngentshiseko ngezindlela ezimbili eziphambili: Inqubo ye-Acetone-Buthanol nenqubo ye-propylene oxide. Enqubweni ye-Acetone-Buthanol, i-Acetone ne-Buthanol baphendulwa phambi kwe-catalyst ye-acid ukukhiqiza i-isopropanol. Inqubo ye-oxide ye-propylene oxide ifaka ukusabela kwe-propylene nge-oxygen phambi kwe-catalyst ukukhiqiza i-plylene glycol, eseguqulwa ibe yi-isopropanol.

Okunye ukusetshenziswa okuvame kakhulu kwe-isopropanol ukukhiqizwa kwezimonyo kanye nemikhiqizo yokunakekelwa komuntu siqu. Imvamisa isetshenziswa njenge-solvent kule mikhiqizo ngenxa ye-solubility yayo kanye nezakhiwo ezingacasuli. Ngokwengeziwe, kusetshenziswa futhi ekukhiqizweni kwabahlanzayo zasendlini, lapho kufakwa khona izinto zayo ze-Genericidal. Embonini yezemithi, i-sopropanol isetshenziswa njenge-solvent lapho kulungiswa izidakamizwa futhi njengento eluhlaza yokuhlanganiswa kwamanye amakhompiyutha emithi.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-isopropanol nayo isetshenziswa embonini yokusebenza yokudla njenge-ejenti yokunambitha nokulondolozwa. Kuvame ukutholakala ekudleni okucutshunguliwe okufana nama-jams, ama-jellies kanye neziphuzo ezithambile ngenxa yekhono lawo lokuthuthukisa ukunambitheka nokubuyisa impilo eshalofu. Ubuthi obuphansi be-isopropanol buvumela ukuthi lisetshenziswe ngokuphepha kulezi zicelo.

Ekuphetheni, i-sopropanol iyinto esetshenziswa kakhulu yamakhemikhali enamakhemikhali amaningi ezimboni. Isakhiwo saso esihlukile se-molecular kanye nezakhiwo ezibonakalayo zikwenza kube yisithako esibalulekile ezimbonini ezahlukahlukene, kufaka phakathi izimonyo, amakhamishini kanye nokusebenza kokudla. Ulwazi lwegama layo elivamile nokusetshenziswa kwalo luhlinzeka ngokuqonda okungcono kwalesi sakhiwo samakhemikhali esiguquguqukayo.
