Methylacetylene-propadiene gas

Methylacetylene-propadiene (MPS) gas is a type of fuel gas used in oxy-fuel welding and cutting torches, comprising a mixture of several gases.

MPS gases

An MPS gas is a mixture of two or more of propane, butane, butadiene, methylacetylene (propyne, CH3C≡CH) and propadiene (CH2=C=CH2).[1] They are marketed under different names including: "MPS", "Chem-O-Lean", "Apachi Gas", "FG-2 Gas", "Flamex" and "natural gas".[1] The most commonly known type of MPS gas is the discontinued MAPP gas.[2]

As a fuel gas, it burns hotter than propylene, propane or natural gas.

gollark: Your opinion is bad. I am not accepting feedback on this metaopinion at this time.
gollark: No.

gollark: If my mind were somehow stuck into a slug or something then either:- the limited slug brain wouldn't be able to support most of it. "I" would be stuck as a slug with a vague longing for missing things "I" can't actually understand- it would work fine because ??? handwave and I'd be stuck in the constant barely-not-dying state of all wild animals for several years, probably incredibly bored and stressed at the same time, until I die of some wild animal thing.
gollark: It's not really me if I'm a slug though.
