SEOUL: Spray-type bubble cleansers used by children during bath time have been found to pose fire and explosion risks due to their use of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) as a propellant, according to a South Korean report released on Friday (Nov 29).
A joint investigation by the Korea Consumer Agency and the Korea Gas Safety Corp. revealed that all 40 bubble cleanser products for children tested were found to use LPG as a propellant. It did not disclose the names of the products.
