Propane. Propane is flammable, noncorrosive, colorless and nontoxic. It also liquefies easily und pressure at atmospheric temperature and is one of the lightest hydrocarbons in liquid phases in the paraffin series. While propane is nontoxic, prolonged inhalation of high concentrations has an anesthetic effect.
Other common refrigerants used in various applications are ammonia, sulfur dioxide, and non-halogenated hydrocarbons such as propane. The ideal refrigerant would have favorable thermodynamic properties, be noncorrosive to mechanical components, and be safe, including free from toxicity and flammability.
