Not to sound like I'm diminishing the danger of large quantities of stored butane, and in fact I might be suggesting it is more dangerous than an aerosol, but the definition of aerosol is: A gaseous suspension of fine solid or liquid particles. Butane boils at 30.2 F so at near or above freezing loose butane would be a gas. That might help in yoir search.
