• Beschreibung

  Butane is a flammable, colorless gas that follows propane in the alkane series. Butane is also called n-butane, with the “n” designating it as normal butane, the straight chain isomer. Butane’s other isomer is isobutane. The chemical name of isobutane is 2-methylpropane. Isomers are different compounds that have the same molecular formula. Normal butane and isobutane are two different compounds, and the name butane is used collectively to denote both n-butane and isobutane; the names n-butane and isobutane are used to distinguish properties and chemical characteristics unique to each compound. Butane, along with propane, is a major component of liquefied petroleum gas . It exists as a liquid under moderate pressure or below 0℃ at atmospheric pressure, which makes it ideal for storage and transportation in liquid form.

• Beschreibung

  Butane Residual Solvent Standard (Item No. 25932) is a certified reference material standard for butane, a solvent that has been used in the extraction of cannabinoids from Cannabis and has been identified as a contaminant in butane hash oil and Δ⁹-THC concentrates. It is designed for use as a reference standard for butane by GC- or LC-MS. This product is intended for research and forensic applications.

• Chemische Eigenschaften

  The main sources of butane are crude oil refi ning and natural gas processing. It is usually blended into motor vehicle gasoline to increase the fuel’s volatility and to make engine starting easier. Butane contains mixtures of methane, ethane, propane, iso-butane, and n-butane and is a colorless aliphatic hydrocarbon gas with a gasoline-like odor. Butane is a component of liquefi ed petroleum gas (LPG) and as such is used in a wide variety of fuel applications for both recreational and leisure use, including heating and air-conditioning, refrigeration, cooking, and in lighters. Butane is commonly used alone or in mixtures as a propellant in aerosol consumer products, such as hair sprays, deodorants and antiperspirants, shaving creams, edible oil and dairy products, cleaners, pesticides and coatings (e.g., automobile or household spray paint). Butane is used as a chemical intermediate in the production of maleic anhydride, ethylene, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), synthetic rubber, and acetic acid and its by-products. Butane is a simple asphyxiant with explosive and flammable potential. It is also widely used as a substance of abuse. The main target organs are in the central nervous and cardio vascular systems. Butane is found in aerosols, lighter fuel and refi lls, small blow torches, and camping stoves. Pure grades of butane are used in calibrating instruments and as a food additive. It is widely available. Misuse and adulteration of butane is a common com mercial practice.

• Physikalische Eigenschaften

  Colorless, flammable gas with a faint, disagreeable, natural gas or gasoline-like odor. Odor threshold concentration in air is 1,200 ppm_v (Nagata and Takeuchi, 1990). Detected in water at a concentration of 6.2 mg/L (Bingham et al., 2001).

• History

  Butane is extracted from natural gas and is also obtained during petroleum refining. Butane can be obtained from natural gas by compression, adsorption, or absorption. All three processes were used in the early days of the LPG industry, but compression and adsorption were generally phased out during the 20th century. Most butane now is obtained from absorption and separation from oil.

• Verwenden

  Butane is the common fuel used in cigarette lighters and also as an aerosol propellant, a calibration gas, a refrigerant, a fuel additive, and a chemical feedstock in the petrochemical industry.

• Verwenden

  n-Butane occurs in petroleum, natural gas,and in refinery cracking products. It isused as a liquid fuel, often called liquefiedpetroleum gas, in a mixture with propane. Itis also used as a propellant for aerosols, a rawmaterial for motor fuels, in the production ofsynthetic rubber, and in organic synthesis.

• Verwenden

  n-Butane can be obtained from natural gas and from refinery hydro cracker streams. Most of the n-butane goes into fuel additive uses. The major chemical use is as a feedstock for ethylene production by cracking . The other important chemical uses for butane are in oxidation to acetic acid and in the production of maleic anhydride. In the past, butane also was the main feedstock for the production of butadiene by dehydrogenation, but it has been replaced by coproduct butadiene obtained from ethylene production.
  Ethylene. The largest potential chemical market for n-butane is in steam cracking to ethylene and coproducts. n-Butane is a supplemental feedstock for olefin plants and has accounted for 1-4 percent of total ethylene production for most years since 1970. It can be used at up to 10-15 percent ofthe total feed in ethane/propane crackers with no major modifications . n-Butane can also be used as a supplemental feed at as high as 20-30 percent in heavy naphtha crackers. The consumption of C4S has fluctuated considerably from year to year since 1970, depending on the relative price ofbutane and other feedstocks. The yield of ethylene is only 36-40 percent, with the other products including methane, propylene, ethane, and butadiene, acetylene, and butylenes. About 2-3 billion Ib of butane are consumed annually to produce ethylene.

• Verwenden

  As producer gas; raw material for motor fuels, in the manufacture of synthetic rubbers.

• Definition

  A gaseous hydrocarbon,C₄H₁₀; d. 0.58 g cm^–3; m.p. –138°C;b.p. 0°C. Butane is obtained frompetroleum (from refinery gas orby cracking higher hydrocarbons).The fourth member of the alkaneseries, it has a straight chain ofcarbon atoms and is isomeric with2-methylpropane (CH₃CH(CH₃)CH₃,formerly called isobutane). It can easilybe liquefied under pressure and issupplied in cylinders for use as a fuelgas. It is also a raw material for makingbuta-1,3-diene (for synthetic rubber).

• Allgemeine Beschreibung

  N-BUTANE is a colorless gas with a faint petroleum-like odor. For transportation N-BUTANE may be stenched. N-BUTANE is shipped as a liquefied gas under its vapor pressure. Contact with the liquid can cause frostbite. N-BUTANE is easily ignited. Its vapors are heavier than air. Any leak can be either liquid or vapor. Under prolonged exposure to fire or intense heat the containers may rupture violently and rocket. N-BUTANE is used as a fuel, an aerosol propellant, in cigarette lighters, and to make other chemicals.

• Air & Water Reaktionen

  Highly flammable.

• Reaktivität anzeigen

  N-BUTANE can explode when exposed to flame or when mixed with (nickel carbonyl + oxygen). N-BUTANE can also react with oxidizers. Strong acids and alkalis should be avoided. .

• Hazard

  Highly flammable, dangerous fire and explosion risk. Explosive limits in air 1.9–8.5%. Narcotic in high concentration. Central nervous sys- tem impairment.

• Health Hazard

  n-Butane is a nontoxic gas. Exposure toits atmosphere can result in asphyxia. Athigh concentrations it produces narcosis.Exposure to 1% concentration in air for10 minutes may cause drowsiness. Its odoris detectable at a concentration of 5000 ppm.

• Health Hazard

  Exposures to butane cause excitation, blurred vision, slurred speech, nausea, vomiting, coughing, sneezing, and increased salivation. With increased periods of exposure to high concentrations of butane, the signs and symptoms of toxicity become more severe. For instance, the exposed worker demonstrates confusion, perceptual distortion, hallucina tions (ecstatic or terrifying), delusions, behavioral changes, tinnitus, and ataxia. Workers exposed to larger doses of butane suffer from nystagmus, dysarthria, tachycardia, central depression of the CNS, drowsiness, coma, and sudden death. It has been reported that poisoned individuals show anoxia, vagal inhibition of the heart, respiratory depression, cardiac arrhythmias, and trauma.

• Brandgefahr

  EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE. Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Will form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors from liquefied gas are initially heavier than air and spread along ground. CAUTION: Hydrogen (UN1049), Deuterium (UN1957), Hydrogen, refrigerated liquid (UN1966) and Methane (UN1971) are lighter than air and will rise. Hydrogen and Deuterium fires are difficult to detect since they burn with an invisible flame.

• Source

  Present in gasoline ranging from 4.31 to 5.02 vol % (quoted, Verschueren, 1983). Harley et al. (2000) analyzed the headspace vapors of three grades of unleaded gasoline where ethanol was added to replace methyl tert-butyl ether. The gasoline vapor concentrations of butane in the headspace were 7.4 wt % for regular grade, 6.9 wt % for mid-grade, and 6.3 wt % for premium grade.
  Schauer et al. (1999) reported butane in a diesel-powered medium-duty truck exhaust at an emission rate of 3,830 μg/km.
  Schauer et al. (2001) measured organic compound emission rates for volatile organic compounds, gas-phase semi-volatile organic compounds, and particle-phase organic compounds from the residential (fireplace) combustion of pine, oak, and eucalyptus. The gas-phase emission rate of butane was 25.9 mg/kg of pine burned. Emission rates of butane were not measured during the combustion of oak and eucalyptus.
  California Phase II reformulated gasoline contained butane at a concentration of 7,620 mg/kg. Gas-phase tailpipe emission rates from gasoline-powered automobiles with and without catalytic converters were 1,620 and 191,000 μg/km, respectively (Schauer et al., 2002).
  Reported as an impurity (0.4 wt %) in 99.4 wt % trans-2-butene (Chevron Phillips, 2004).

• Environmental Fate

  Biological. In the presence of methane, Pseudomonas methanica degraded butane to 1-butanol, methyl ethyl ether, butyric acid, and 2-butanone (Leadbetter and Foster, 1959). 2-Butanone was also reported as a degradation product of butane by the microorganism Mycobacterium smegmatis (Riser-Roberts, 1992). Butane may biodegrade in two ways. The first is the formation of butyl hydroperoxide which decomposes to 1-butanol followed by oxidation to butyric acid. The other pathway involves dehydrogenation yielding 1-butene, which may react with water forming 1- butanol (Dugan, 1972). Microorganisms can oxidize alkanes under aerobic conditions (Singer and Finnerty, 1984). The most common degradative pathway involves the oxidation of the terminal methyl group forming the corresponding alcohol (1-butanol). The alcohol may undergo a series of dehydrogenation steps forming butanal followed by oxidation forming butyric acid. The fatty acid may then be metabolized by β-oxidation to form the mineralization products, carbon dioxide, and water (Singer and Finnerty, 1984).
  Photolytic. Major products reported from the photooxidation of butane with nitrogen oxides under atmospheric conditions were acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, and 2-butanone. Minor products included peroxyacyl nitrates and methyl, ethyl and propyl nitrates, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. Biacetyl, tert-butyl nitrate, ethanol, and acetone were reported as trace products (Altshuller, 1983; Bufalini et al., 1971). The amount of sec-butyl nitrate formed was about twice that of n-butyl nitrate. 2-Butanone was the major photooxidation product with a yield of 37% (Evmorfopoulos and Glavas, 1998). Irradiation of butane in the presence of chlorine yielded carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, hydroperoxides, peroxyacid, and other carbonyl compounds (Hanst and Gay, 1983). Nitrous acid vapor and butane in a “smog chamber” were irradiated with UV light. Major oxidation products identified included 2-butanone, acetaldehyde, and butanal. Minor products included peroxyacetyl nitrate, methyl nitrate, and unidentified compounds (Cox et al., 1981).
  The rate constant for the reaction of butane and OH radicals in the atmosphere at 300 K is 1.6 x 10-12 cm³/molecule?sec (Hendry and Kenley, 1979). Based upon a photooxidation rate constant of 2.54 x 10^-12 cm³/molecule?sec with OH radicals in summer daylight, the atmospheric lifetime is 54 h (Altshuller, 1991). At atmospheric pressure and 298 K, Darnall et al. (1978) reported a rate constant of 2.35–4.22 x 10^-12 cm³/molecule?sec for the same reaction. A rate constant of 1.28 x 10-11 L/molecule?sec was reported for the reaction of butane with OH radicals in air at 298 K, respectively (Greiner, 1970). At 296 K, a rate constant of 6.5 x 10^-17 cm³/molecule?sec was reported for the reaction of butane with NO3 (Atkinson, 1990).
  Chemical/Physical. Complete combustion in air produces carbon dioxide and water. Butane will not hydrolyze because it has no hydrolyzable functional group.
