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

Propane is a hydrocarbon gas with the chemical formula C3H8. It is a colorless, odorless gas that is commonly used as a fuel for heating, cooking, and industrial applications. Propane is stored and transported as a liquid under pressure in tanks and cylinders. It is a byproduct of natural gas processing and petroleum refining. Propane is widely used as a fuel for residential heating and cooking, as well as for outdoor grilling and camping stoves. In the industrial sector, it is used as a fuel for forklifts, generators, and other equipment. Propane is also used as a refrigerant, a propellant in aerosol products, and a feedstock in the petrochemical industry for the production of various chemicals and plastics. Its clean-burning properties make it an environmentally friendly alternative to other fossil fuels.
