Alcohol, Anhydrous, Denatured, 200 Proof is ethanol that has added additives that render it undrinkable, bad tasting or even poisonous to discourage people from consuming it. The additives do not chemically change the alcohol and thus it is identical to a normal alcohol apart from it's smell, color and taste and can be used for the exact same purposes as normal alcohol. Typical denaturants include methyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol and methyl isobutyl ketone.
