Propane SDS
📄 Propane SDS PDF download, GHS classification, CAS 74-98-6, hazard statements, and industrial safety information.
Propane is a colorless, highly flammable hydrocarbon gas commonly used as a fuel for heating, cooking, industrial processes, and LPG systems. It is easily liquefied under pressure and stored in cylinders or tanks. Because propane forms explosive mixtures with air, proper storage, leak prevention, and ventilation are essential.
What is Propane?
- Hydrocarbon gas with chemical formula C₃H₈
- Highly flammable fuel gas
- Main component of LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas)
- Widely used in heating, cooking, and industrial fuel systems
