No, permanent markers are not soluble in ethanol. Permanent markers use a type of ink that is oil-based or alcohol-based, and ethanol is not a strong enough solvent to dissolve it.
The solvent is really the key to permanent markers; without this liquid carrier to dissolve and transport ink colorant and ink resin through the sponge via siphoning, markers would not work. Read more at the link below.
Water is not able to remove permanent markers - a special solvent would need to be used.
If you look at the scientific name for them (permanent markers) you'll notice that, by name, they're permanent; thus making them permanent. The fact that they are permanent is best shown by the fact that they are called "Permanent Markers."
Permanent markers are made using a type of ink that typically contains a solvent, pigments, and a resin binder. The solvent helps the ink flow smoothly, while the pigments provide color and opacity. The resin binder helps the ink adhere to surfaces and dry quickly to create a permanent mark.
The active ingredients in permanent markers are typically a combination of dye or pigment dissolved in alcohol or another solvent. These ingredients allow the ink to adhere strongly to surfaces and resist fading or smudging over time.
If by "wet erase" markers you mean water-soluble markers, the answer is - usually yes. The surface preparation for dry erase boards (whiteboards) is different from the way you would prepare a surface for water-soluble markers. As a consequence, it is not uncommon for water soluble markers to leave a stain on a whiteboard that requires some other solvent to remove. If a wet permanent marker is used on a dry erase board, it can sometimes be removed with an appropriate solvent, but often the whiteboard will be permanently stained (which you might expect from a permanent marker)
Sharpie markers typically contain a solvent called ethanol or isopropanol, which makes up a small percentage of the overall volume of the marker. The exact amount of solvent in a Sharpie marker can vary depending on the specific formulation of the ink, but it is generally around 10-20% of the total volume. The solvent helps the ink flow smoothly and aids in quick drying.
Permanent marker inks contain three main ingredients: colorant, carrier, and resin. A colorant, usually dyes or pigments, is what gives markers their permanence, and, of course, their color. A dye is usually a coloring material dissolved in a solvent, making it a soluble dye. On the other hand, a pigment is an insoluble coloring matter. Solvents are used as the carrier in permanent markers. Alcohol, such as ethanol or isopropanol, is an environmentally friendly solvent. It also evaporates quickly, allowing permanent markers to dry faster. The last component, resin, is a polymer that promotes adhesion. This also adds to the permanence of markers. The resin sticks like glue to most of the surfaces the marker is written on causing the pigment to attach to surfaces. These markers are generally not truly permanent as, on most surfaces, they do not stain but form a surface layer that can be removed by high pressure cleaning or solvents such as acetone, and they will eventually wear away over time. You can now gather that the so called permanent marker, can be removed because the resin component in the marker ink is soluble in acetone.
Permanent markers typically contain a solvent, colorant (usually a dye or pigment), and resin. The solvent allows the ink to flow, the colorant provides the desired color, and the resin helps the ink adhere to surfaces and resist fading or smudging once it dries.
