You asked for some of the science behind how IPA alchol ( C3H8O ) and 
lipds ( C3H5O3+C3 with double bonds of O and 3 fatty acids ) interact.

That page offered some of the molecular structure behind the lipids.

It may not explain it all, but it does offer the basis of how IPA 
will act as a solvent.
