butane
Portable stove gas
Butane is a flammable hydrocarbon gas used as fuel in lighters, portable stoves, and aerosol propellants.
It liquefies under pressure, making it easy to store in small containers.
Along with propane, butane is a common component of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).
The camp stove runs on butane canisters.
