Can You Spray Alcohol Inside a Car for Disinfection?
1 Answers
You can spray alcohol inside a car for disinfection, but the car must be turned off and kept in a non-operational state. At the same time, it is important to ensure proper ventilation in the car. Since 75% alcohol has a flash point around 22 degrees Celsius and evaporates quickly, car owners must strictly avoid any open flames nearby and control the amount of alcohol used to prevent excessive alcohol concentration in the air, which could lead to an explosion. Seventy-five percent alcohol is effective in inactivating viruses because alcohol molecules have strong permeability, allowing them to penetrate the membrane of bacteria, enter their interior, and coagulate the proteins that form the basis of bacterial life, thereby killing the bacteria.
