Yini i-Ethanol?
I-Ethanol, levame kwatiwa ngekutsi tjwala, yinhlanganisela yetintfo letiphilako lenefomula yesakhiwo CH3CH2OH (noma C2H5OH) kanye nefomula yemamolekhyuli C2H6O. Ngu tjwala lobuvame kakhulu be-monohydric.
Ekushiseni kweligumbi kanye nekucindzeteleka, i-ethanol yintfo levutsako, legucugucukako, lete umbala lebonakalako lenebuthi lobuphansi; loludzaka loluhlantekile alunatseki ngalokucondzile. Ineliphunga lelikhetsekile lelinebukhali lobuncane, kunambitseka lokumnandzi kancane, kanye nekucasula, umuva lobukhali. Iyavutsa, futsi umhwamuko wayo ungakha tihlanganisi letiqhumako nemoya. Iyahlanganiswa nemanti nganoma ngusiphi silinganiso futsi ingahlanganiswa ne chloroform, i-ether, i-methanol, i-acetone, kanye naletinye tintfo letiningi letiphilako. Kucina kwayo lokuhlobene (d15.56) ngu-0.816.

Ngeminyaka lenge-20 yekutinikela ekutfumeleni emakhemikhali etimbonini emaveni langaphandle, i-Shandong Pulisi Chemical Co., Ltd. Kutinikela kwetfu lokungagucuki ekhwalithi lehambisanako, imisebenti yekuphakela letsembekile, kanye netisombululo letigcile kumakhasimende kusivumele kutsi sikhonte balingani emaveni langetulu kwa-30, sihamba ngetindlela letiyinkimbinkimbi tekuhwebelana kwemhlaba wonkhe ngebungcweti. Njengemkhiciti loholako wemakhemikhali losekelwe eShandong, eChina, siyachubeka nekusebentisa tikhungo tekukhicita letisezingeni lelisetulu, kulawula lizinga lokucinile, kanye nekusebenta kahle kwekuletsa linani kanye nekucinisekisa kuletfwa ngesikhatsi kuwo onkhe emaklayenti.
