Answer

In the name of Allāh, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Assalāmu ῾alaykum wa Rahmatullāhi Wabarakātuh

The alcohol used in sanitizers and other chemical related products is not the normal alcohol which is consumed. Therefore, it is permissible to used such products.

And Allāh Ta῾āla Knows Best
