LIQUID PETROLEUM GAS (LPG) Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics

Liquefied petroleum gas, commonly referred to as LPG, is a flammable hydrocarbon fuel composed primarily of propane, butane, or propane butane blends. It is widely used for heating, cooking, vehicle fuel, aerosol propellants, and in petrochemical processing. LPG is stored under pressure as a liquid and vaporizes when released, making it a convenient energy source. In LPG systems, O-rings, rubber seals, gaskets, and plastic components must be evaluated for chemical compatibility and pressure performance to ensure reliable sealing. Proper storage, ventilation, leak detection, and safe handling procedures are essential.
