Ethanol, Absolute

It is a volatile, flammable, colorless straight-chain, primary alcohol,used as solvent and fuel.It is a psychoactive drug and one of the oldest recreational drugs still used by humans. It can cause alcohol intoxication when consumed excess. Ethanol intended for industrial use is often produced from ethylene. It has a long history as a fuel for heat and light, and more recently as a fuel for internal combustion engines. It is also miscible with light aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as pentane and hexane, and with aliphatic chlorides such as trichloroethane and tetrachloroethylene. Ethanol is produced both as a petrochemical, through the hydration of ethylene and, via biological processes, by fermenting sugars with yeast. Ethanol can be oxidized to acetaldehyde and further oxidized to acetic acid. Ethanol may also be utilized as a rocket fuel, and is currently in lightweight rocket-powered racing aircraft.
