Methanol has the chemical formula CH3OH and is a clear, colourless liquid which has a mild, characteristic alcohol odour.  It is soluble in water and is also soluble in other alcohols, esters, ketones, ethers, and in most other organic solvents.
Application:
1. Methanol is an important chemical feedstock which is employed primarily in the production of formaldehyde, methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE), and acetic acid.
2. It is also used in the manufacture of DMT, MMA, chloromethanes, methylamines, glycol methyl ethers, and fuels.
3. Methanol also has general solvent and antifreeze uses so can be found as a component of paint stripper, and de-icers.
4.Methanol is an integral part of routine life as it can be found in plastics, synthetic fibres, fuels, resins, paints, safety glass laminate, adhesives, solvents, carpeting, insulation, refrigerants, particle board, pigments and dyes.
5.Many racing classes including drag racers and mud racers use methanol as their primary fuel source.
6. It is also used in waste water treatment as it provides a carbon food source for the denitrifying bacteria as the nutrient rich nitrates in sewage effluent can have a major effect on water ecosystems, for example, enabling algae blooms.
7. Methanol is also a denaturing agent in polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.

Isopropyl alcohol is a colorless, flammable organic compound with a pungent alcoholic odor. As an isopropyl group linked to a hydroxyl group it is the simplest example of a secondary alcohol, where the alcohol carbon atom is attached to two other carbon atoms.

Normal Propanol has molecular formula C3H8O. It is colorless and transparent liquid. It has typical sharp musty odor that is comparable with the smell of rubbing alcohol.
It is used to other solvents such as cosmetics, skin/hair preparations, perfumes, pharmaceuticals, lacquer formulations, dye solutions, antifreezes,soaps and window cleaner.
It is also used for creating printing inks, coatings, de-greasing fluids, adhesives, insecticides and herbicides.

Isobutanol is an aliphatic alcohol with structural formula (CH3)2CHCH2OH. It is a colorless, flammable, organic compound with a characteristic smell. Isobutanol is widely used in industry, as a solvent in chemical reactions, as well as being a useful starting material for organic synthesis.
Applications:
1. A major part of the production of pure Isobutanol is converted into derivates (primarily esters) which are used as solvents in the coating industry. The advantage here is that Isobutanol prevents blushing of certain coatings when they dry under humid conditions. Thus it is widely used as a diluent in cellulose nitrate lacquers and serves to improve their flow, gloss and resistance to blushing.
2. It is used as starting material in the production of wear inhibitors and anti-corrosion additives in engine oils, e. g. zinc diisobutyl dithiophosphate.
3. Isobutanol also has its uses as solubilizer in the textile industry, e. g. additive in spinning baths or carrier    for colouring plastics.
4.It is also used as an extractant in the production of drugs and natural substances such as antibiotics, hormones, vitamins, alkaloids and camphor.
5. It is used as an additive in polishes and cleaners, e. g. floor cleaners and stain removers.
6. It is an additive in de-icing fluids and  in gasoline for spark-ignition engines (prevents carburetor icing).
7. It also acts as dehydrating agent (entrainer in azeotropic distillation). 

1-Butanol, also known as butan-1-ol or n-butanol, is a primary alcohol with the chemical formula C₄H₉OH and a linear structure. Isomers of 1-butanol are isobutanol, butan-2-ol and tert-butanol. The unmodified term butanol usually refers to the straight chain isomer
