When people buy high-purity ethanol, they usually expect three things: consistency, safety, and performance. But the truth is, not every ethanol product meets those expectations. That’s why we put extra focus on how our Ethyl Alcohol 99.5% is made, tested, and packaged. In this blog, we will go through what truly sets our Ethyl Alcohol 99.5% apart, explained in a clear, straightforward way.

1. Neutral pH — Gentle on Surfaces, Reliable in Use

One thing customers often don’t think about is pH. Our ethanol is made to have a neutral pH, which simply means it isn’t acidic or alkaline. Neutral pH = dependable performance + longer-lasting equipment.

Here’s why this matters!

  • It’s safer for delicate equipment, including glassware, metal parts, and electronics housings.
  • Neutral pH helps prevent corrosion.
  • It gives you more predictable results during lab work or chemical mixing.

2. Low Conductivity — Important for Electronics & Precision Cleaning

Regular ethanol often contains trace ions or moisture, which can increase electrical conductivity. Our product is specially processed to maintain extremely low conductivity.

Read on to know why that’s essential:

  • It lowers the risk of static damage when cleaning sensitive electronics.
  • It reduces streaking and spotting on lenses, screens, and precision tools.
  • It is safer around circuit boards and other parts where even small conductivity can cause problems.

3. Manufactured in the USA — Consistency You Can Trust

All of our ethanol is produced and packaged in the United States, which means:

  • It follows strict manufacturing standards.
  • Quality checks happen during every stage of production.
  • You get better batch-to-batch consistency.

U.S.-made chemical products are known for high reliability. So when we say “USA-manufactured,” it’s not just a label. It means you’re getting ethanol that meets strong, transparent quality expectations every single time.

4. Precision-Grade Purity — 99.5% Ethanol

The biggest advantage of our product is its purity level. At 99.5%, this ethanol is considered "precision-grade," which means it's suitable for environments that need extremely clean, moisture-controlled solvents.

Here’s what that level of purity gives you:

  • Fast, clean evaporation with no sticky or cloudy residue
  • Better solvent strength for extraction or mixing
  • Reduced contamination during lab work

When you combine these 4 qualities:

✔ Neutral pH
✔ Low conductivity
✔ USA manufacturing
✔ Precision-grade purity

you get an ethanol that performs reliably in professional environments where even small impurities can create big problems.

Whether you’re cleaning electronics, preparing lab samples, disinfecting surfaces, or handling chemical formulations, Natural Cosmetic Lab’s Ethyl Alcohol 99.5% is designed to support safe, clean, and consistent results.

FAQs

1. What makes 99.5% ethanol better than regular ethanol?
The main difference is purity. At 99.5%, you get ethanol with very little water content, which means faster evaporation, cleaner drying, and more reliable results in labs and electronics cleaning. Lower-grade ethanol may leave residue or cause moisture-related issues.

2. Can I use Ethyl Alcohol 99.5% for cleaning electronics?
Yes. Its low conductivity and quick-drying nature make it suitable for sensitive electronics, circuit boards, and precision tools. Just be sure to use it in a well-ventilated area and follow standard safety guidelines when cleaning delicate components.

3. Why is U.S.-manufactured ethanol considered more reliable?
Ethanol made in the United States goes through strict production and quality-control checks. This means every batch is tested for purity, consistency, and safety.
