| 词条 | Hydrogen odorant |
| 释义 |
A hydrogen odorant in any form, is a minute amount of odorant such as ethyl isobutyrate, with a rotting-cabbage-like smell, that is added to the otherwise colorless and almost odorless hydrogen gas, so that leaks can be detected before a fire or explosion occurs. Odorants are considered non-toxic in the extremely low concentrations occurring in hydrogen gas delivered to the end user. The approach is not new, for the same safety reasons the odorant tert-butyl mercaptan is used in natural gas. See also
