liquid gas
Supercooled vapor state
Liquid gas is a substance that exists as a gas under normal conditions but has been converted to liquid form, typically through compression, cooling, or both.
The term appears most often in contexts of fuel storage and transport: liquid gas tanks, liquid petroleum gas.
The phrase is somewhat paradoxical—a gas that's currently liquid—but standard in industrial usage.
