Application

Propane is a colourless, odourless gas that is flammable, liquefied, and heavier than air. It is used as fuel for laboratory burners, portable stoves, and vehicles (liquefied petroleum gas [LPG]). Propane is also used in the research of polymerization catalysts. Gas is easy to handle in a small, light pressure can, while the disposable container allows for aluminium recycling when finished.
