Acetylene

A colorless ﬂammable gas, lighter than air. Mixtures with air are explosive. It results from

the interaction of calcium carbide with water. In industrial production, acetylene is mainly

manufactured by the pyrolysis of light hydrocarbons.

Acetylene is widely used for welding and cutting of metals. The usage of acetylene as a

feedstock in the chemical industry declines due to cost and environmental considerations.

Synonyms/Trade Names: Ethine, Ethyne.

Odor

Odorless or with a faint ethereal smell if pure. The

commercial-grade may have a garlic-like smell due to

impurities.

Hazards

Highly ﬂammable.

Gas/air mixtures are explosive. Forms explosive

acetylide compounds with copper, mercury, silver &

brasses (containing more than 66% copper).

Asphyxiant. Non-toxic, but, when generated from

calcium

carbide, it can contain toxic impurities such as traces of

phosphine and arsine.

Butane

A colorless ﬂammable gas that is heavier than air. The term “butane” is used for any of two

structural isomers (n-butane or iso-butane, with unbranched and branched-chain

respectively) or for their mixture. Occurs in light petroleum fractions.

Butane is used mainly as a fuel and as a feedstock in organic synthesis. It is applied also

as a propellant in aerosol sprays and may be used as an ozone-friendly refrigerant.

Mixtures of butane with propane and other hydrocarbons are referred to as LPG (liqueﬁed

petroleum gas).

Odor

Hazards

Highly ﬂammable.

Inhalation of butane can cause euphoria, drowsiness,

narcosis, asphyxia, cardiac arrhythmia, ﬂuctuations in

blood pressure, and temporary memory loss, when

abused directly from a highly pressurized container,

and

can result in death from asphyxiation and ventricular

ﬁbrillation.

Hexane

A colorless ﬂammable gas that is heavier than air. Hexane is a constituent component of

gasoline. It is widely used in solvents as it is cheap, relatively safe and largely unreactive. It

is also used as an industrial cleaner and degreaser and is an ingredient in many consumer

products.

Hydrogen

A colorless, odorless, ﬂammable gas that is much lighter than air. Mixtures with air are

explosive. Results from the interaction of acids, bases, and water with active metals and

from the electrolysis of aqueous solutions. In industrial production, the main source of

hydrogen is hydrocarbons.

Methane

A colorless ﬂammable gas, the main component of natural gas, marsh gases. Methane

results from bacterial decomposition of plant and animal matter (landﬁll gas).
