ISOPENTANE Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Isopentane is a colorless, flammable liquid with a mild gasoline-like odor, used in various industrial applications. It is primarily employed as a blowing agent in the production of expandable polystyrene (EPS) foam and as a solvent in chemical reactions. Isopentane is also used in the calibration of thermometers and as a fuel component. Despite its utility, isopentane poses significant safety hazards due to its flammability and potential for explosive mixtures with air. Proper handling, storage, and stringent safety measures are essential to minimize risks and ensure safe usage. Adequate ventilation and leak detection systems are crucial in industrial settings.
