![]() ![]() The specific calorific value of LPG is around 46 MJ/kg or 12.78 kWh/kg depending on the composition of LPG. When liquefied under pressure, the volume of butane and propane is reduced to around 1/260 of the gaseous aggregate state. National and international standards specify the minimum content of butane and a maximum LPG vapor pressure. LPG in domestic cylinders used for cooking generally comprises more butane than propane, because the fuel value per kilogram of butane is higher than propane and it liquefies under much lower pressure than propane and thus the handling is safer. Under modest pressure or in cooler conditions, LPG transforms into a liquid state. Propane has its boiling point at -42☌ and butane at -0.5 ☌. ![]() At room temperature, both gases are colourless and odourless. It mainly consists of butane (C 4H 10) or propane (C 3H 8) or a mixture of both.
