Medical alcohol and industrial alcohol are the words that we often hear in our lives. The same is alcohol. There is a big difference between them. Today, the editor of Standard Group will popularize the difference between medical alcohol and industrial alcohol: Alcohol Medical Alcohol.

The alcohol content of medical alcohol is 75%, and the rest is water. The content of industrial alcohol ethanol is about 95%, and it also contains about 1 to 2% of water, and the rest is other alcohols. Chemically pure ethanol may reach 98 to 99%. The content of analytical pure ethanol is generally 99%, if there is no water, the analytical pure is the best.

Industrial alcohol is methanol and medical alcohol is ethanol.

Industrial alcohol cannot be used for disinfection of the human body, because methanol can cause poisoning. Industrial alcohol contains about 4% of methanol. It is used by criminals as edible alcohol to make fake wine. After being consumed, it will produce methanol poisoning. The lethal dose of methanol is about 70 milliliters. Methanol is highly toxic and has the greatest impact on the human nervous system and blood system. It can produce toxic reactions when ingested through the digestive tract, respiratory tract, or skin. Methanol vapor can damage the respiratory tract mucosa and vision. Symptoms of acute poisoning include: headache, nausea, stomach pain, fatigue, blurred vision and even blindness, followed by difficulty breathing, which eventually leads to paralysis of the respiratory center and death. Chronic poisoning reactions are: dizziness, lethargy, headache, tinnitus, loss of energy, and digestive disorders. A poisoning reaction will occur when the methanol intake exceeds 4 grams, and a small cup of more than 10 grams can cause blindness in both eyes and cause death due to large intake.
