About Butane
Butane is a hydrocarbon gas derived from crude oil refining and natural gas processing, primarily used as a fuel, propellant in aerosols, and feedstock for petrochemical production. Internationally traded grades include commercial butane (95-98% purity) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) blends containing butane. Major producers include the Middle East, North America, and Russia, with significant exports from the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and the United States. Buyers should verify vapor pressure specifications carefully, as butane's volatility varies significantly by grade and temperature conditions, directly affecting storage safety and end-use performance in different climates and applications.
