Denatured Alcohol Home Depot
Denatured alcohol, a type of ethanol made unfit for human consumption, is a common household item found at hardware stores like Home Depot. It’s primarily used as a solvent, disinfectant, and fuel.
Denatured alcohol’s versatility stems from its ability to dissolve various substances, kill bacteria, and burn cleanly. Historically, it played a significant role in the Prohibition era, when it was added to ethanol to prevent its consumption as an alcoholic beverage.
