Pure ethanol anywhere?

Friend of mine is experimenting, anyone know of a vendor selling pure alcohol?

edit: thanks for all the US pharmacy suggestions, but I am in the UK.

If your in america Heet dry gas that you put in your car is really pure and everywhere. It works just as good as rubbing alcohol depending on what you need it for

it gets to about 50% on the first time through can increase each subsequent time,

be careful not to consume the first half shot or so of each batch, methanol is bad for you

can't you buy this in any regular pharmacy..? Or is 99% not good enough because it's actually kind of impossible to make 100% as far as I know.

Here in quebec/canada we have alcool which is like 80 to 90% pure alcohol. It's found in liquor shops.

distill your own. or http://organicalcohol.com/store/ sells some great products.

I always ordered from Sigma-Aldrich and Thermo-Scientific, but I'm not sure if Thermo has a UK branch so if you can get the credentials (or someone else) to buy from Sigma they would have everything you would ever need. This is assuming you 0.X micron filtered solvents for chemical analysis.

If by pure alcohol you mean 200 proof (>99.5%) alcohol anhydrous they will also have it, but there are probably easier ways to get reagent ethanol just for synths and laying product. My best bet for you is reading through forums to find someone who will buy it for you or just sell some of their own to you. Ethanol isn't exactly a difficult chemical to get out of a lab.
