JIAHON distributes 75%/95% ethanol and IPA in three grades: 75% cleaning alcohol, 95% industrial alcohol and IPA (isopropyl alcohol). 75% cleaning alcohol is used for surface cleaning in offices, facilities and homes. High-concentration 95% alcohol is used for degreasing in factories and for cleaning precision parts. IPA evaporates quickly and is the industry-standard choice for cleaning in electronics manufacturing.
Choosing between the three grades
| Grade | Concentration | Main use | Where it is used |
|---|---|---|---|
| 75% cleaning alcohol | 75% | Surface cleaning | Surface cleaning in offices, facilities and homes |
| 95% industrial alcohol | 95% | Degreasing, cleaning machines and equipment | Factories, labs, metalworking, pre-treatment before coating |
| IPA (isopropyl alcohol) | 99% or higher | Cleaning electronic parts, flux removal | SMT / PCB processes, electronics repair, cleaning optical lenses |
Safety note: these are highly flammable, high-concentration liquids. Keep them away from flames, sparks and static electricity. Avoid contact with eyes and skin and do not breathe the vapor. After use, close the container tightly and store it in a cool, ventilated place. Never use in an enclosed space.

Same name, different chemical: ethanol vs. methanol
What is sold as “industrial alcohol” may be ethanol, or it may be methanol. Methanol is highly toxic: swallowing it, breathing its vapor or absorbing it through the skin can all cause poisoning. Vision damage may appear only a dozen or more hours after exposure, and severe cases can lead to blindness or death. Never use methanol to disinfect or wipe the body, or anywhere it may touch food. Wherever you buy “industrial alcohol”, check the ingredients on the label before use.
For surface cleaning choose 75% alcohol; for degreasing equipment choose 95% alcohol; for electronic parts and flux cleaning choose IPA.
FAQ
Where can I buy industrial alcohol? JIAHON distributes 75%/95% ethanol and IPA. The 75% and 95% alcohol and the IPA on this page can all be quoted online, in 4 L and 20 L drums.
How big is a “big drum” of alcohol? The drums on this page come in 4 L and 20 L. The 20 L drum is available in 75% and 95% alcohol; the 4 L ethanol 95% can be ordered by the case (6 drums per case).
How do I choose a concentration? What is the difference between 75%, 95% and IPA? 75% alcohol is for surface cleaning; 95% alcohol is for degreasing and cleaning machines and equipment; IPA evaporates quickly and is used for cleaning electronic parts and removing flux.
What is the difference between denatured and undenatured alcohol? Denatured alcohol is ethanol with additives that make it toxic or unpleasant to drink, so it cannot be used as a beverage; the most common additive is methanol. Both items on this page are ethanol 95%; for the actual additives, refer to the product safety data sheet (SDS).
What is the difference between methanol and ethanol? Can methanol be used for disinfection? No. Ethanol is what is usually meant by “alcohol”. Methanol is highly toxic: swallowing it, breathing its vapor or absorbing it through the skin can cause poisoning, and swallowing it can cause permanent optic nerve damage or blindness. Methanol is for industrial use only and must not be used to disinfect or wipe the body or anywhere it may touch food.
Is isopropyl alcohol (IPA) the same as alcohol? No. IPA is isopropyl alcohol, a different kind of alcohol. It evaporates quickly and is commonly used to clean electronic parts and remove flux. Like ethanol, it is a flammable liquid: keep it away from flames and use it with good ventilation.
