| | Summary: Denatured alcohol |
 | | Here are the responses to my request: Noelle: I use denatured alcohol with no problems, but it all depends on how it was denatured as there are different ways and I have had a bad experience with one. |
 | | If you get lucky, the container actually tells you what is in these alcohols, often a mixture of methanol, ethyl alcohol, and maybe some isopropyl, or maybe someone will be able to give the info via H'net so you can compare and use if it is comparable to "reagent alcohol". |
 | | If it is absolute (100%) denatured alcohol, you might want to dilute it, and use it as 95% denatured alcohol, just in case it has absorbed water, or is not as pure as it should be. |
