-use [70% rubbing alcohol] for [skin contact] and general disinfection because the water content helps it stay on surfaces longer and penetrate microbial cells to kill them effectively-
Use 99.9% (or higher) rubbing alcohol for electronics, industrial uses, and to remove adhesives due to its faster evaporation, less water content, and powerful solvent properties
.
When to Use 70% Rubbing Alcohol
Disinfecting skin and minor wounds: The water helps it evaporate slowly, allowing for longer contact time to effectively kill germs and bacteria on the skin. [1, 2]
General household cleaning and disinfecting: It’s excellent for wiping down hard surfaces, disinfecting sponges, and cleaning objects because its water content helps dissolve and kill microbes. [1, 2, 5]
Plant pest removal: You can use a cotton swab dipped in 70% alcohol to wipe off small plant pests like aphids and mealybugs
.
When to Use 99.9% Rubbing Alcohol
Cleaning electronics: Its higher concentration and lower water content mean it evaporates quickly, minimizing residue and moisture damage on sensitive electronics, charging ports, and earbuds. [3, 4]
Removing adhesives and cleaning surfaces: It’s a powerful solvent that can be used to dissolve sticky residues and clean various surfaces without leaving smears. [1, 6]
Industrial and solvent uses: Its powerful solvent properties make it suitable for industrial cleaning tasks where faster evaporation and a stronger solvent are needed. [1, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9]
