Even if it wasn't a large size, it likely wouldn't be great. During my PhD on sprays, I did some (unpublished) experiments using isopropyl alcohol to reduce the surface tension. The nozzles I used were around 1 mm in diameter as I recall. I did not anticipate that the room would fill up with isopropyl alcohol vapor and (probably) tiny droplets. I wore a mask and maybe left the room while each trial was running. Breathing that likely wasn't great for my lungs. | ||

You just get drunk from the vapour way faster than it can have a measurable impact on the lungs. (you can actually drink it if it's reasonably pure. it's even less toxic than ethanol, but the hangover is terrible) | ||
