Carbomer

 Carbomer is an ingredient in PURELL Hand Sanitizer


>The chemical name is Polyacrlic acid
>The chemcial structure(C3H4O2)n
>Carbomer is made out of acrylic acid
>Carbomer is a common ingredient used to make gel-like solutions. The carbomer is added to water in purell by sifting it in. As the carbomer combines with water, it creates a non-foaming gel.


This is the chemical structure for carbomer.

Isopropyl Alcohol


 Isopropyl alcohol is an ingredient in PURELL Hand Sanitizer


>Its chemical name is Isopropanol.
>Its chemical structure is C3H8O
>The ease with isoproyl alcohol combusts makes it a dangerous substance that could result in servere or fatal burns to anyone affected by an explosion. External irritations of the skin and eyes may occur from acute exposure to isoproyl alcohol. Incoordination and dizziness may result from exporsure to isoproyl alcohol. OSHA reports that bradycardia, a slowing of the heartbeat, has been observed after oral ingestion of isoproyl alcohol solutions of 25 ml to 100 ml of water.
>This compound is primarily produced by combining water and propene in a hydration reaction. It is also produced by hydrogenating acetone.
>Isoproyl alcohol is a volatile, flammable, clear, colorless liquid which has a sight odor resembling that of a mixture of ethanol and acetone. It has a bitter taste.
>Isoproyl alcohol its a less percentage then etyhl alcohol but work together to keep your hands free of the bacteria and viruses that cause infection and disease



This is the Lewis Structure of Isopropanol aka Isoproyl Alcohol.

Ethyl Alcohol


 Ethyl Alcohol is an ingredient of PUREL Hand Sanitizer.


>The chemical name for Ethyl Alcohol is Ethanol
>Its chemical formula is C2H6O
>Alcohol is known to be therapeutic in moderate doses and, when taken moderately, alcohol has shown to decrease the risk of heart disease and the cleaning and flushing out of the kidneys.These acute effects include, but are not limited to, dehydration and central nervous system depressions. If kids consume this they're IQ may get lower and may have learning and behavioral problems.If adults consume this they may have  memory loss, inebriation, liver disease, and maybe even cancer.
>Ethanol can be fermented from many sources of starch, including corn, wheat, grain, sorghum, barley, and potatoes, and from sugar crops such as sugar cane and sweet sorghum. Because there has been an abundant supply of corn, most of the ethanol made in the United States is from corn.
>Its physical properties is that its a colorless liquid with a pleasant smell. It is completely miscible with water and organic slovent. Its chemical properties is that bit burns with a pale blue, non luminous flame to form carbon dioxide and steam. 
>In 2010 a study by the American Society for Microbiology, ethanol-based hand sanitizers were found significantly more effective at eliminating rhinovirus, the virus that causes the common cold, than washing with soap and water. In this study, results were the same whether subjects used a solution containing 65% ethanol or 80% ethanol.This study also found that hands cleansed with snaitizer remained disinfected for about four hours. Since hand-to-hand transmission is one of the most common ways of spreading viruses, the ASM recommends using ethanol-based sanitizers as a way of preventing the spread of the common cold. Also Ethanol is the main active intelligent in purell because baccteria have been unable to create a resistance to ethanol.



This is the chemical structure of Ethanol aka Ethyl alcohol.
