  2. Chlorodifluoromethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorodifluoromethane

    R-22 use is being phased out in developing countries, where it is largely used for air conditioning applications. R-22 is prepared from chloroform: HCCl 3 + 2 HF → HCF 2 Cl + 2 HCl. An important application of R-22 is as a precursor to tetrafluoroethylene. This conversion involves pyrolysis to give difluorocarbene, which dimerizes: [3]

  3. R-410A - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-410A

    R-410A was invented and patented by Allied Signal (now Honeywell) in 1991. [5] Other producers around the world have been licensed to manufacture and sell R-410A. [6] R-410A was successfully commercialized in the air conditioning segment by a combined effort of Carrier Corporation, Emerson Climate Technologies, Inc., Copeland Scroll Compressors (a division of Emerson Electric Company), and ...

  4. Refrigerant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refrigerant

    Being phased out: A widely used hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) and powerful greenhouse gas with a GWP equal to 1810. Worldwide production of R-22 in 2008 was about 800 Gg per year, up from about 450 Gg per year in 1998. R-438A (MO-99) is a R-22 replacement. [71] R-123 HCFC-123 CHCl 2 CF 3: 2,2-Dichloro-1,1,1-trifluoroethane: 292 79 US phase-out

  5. R-454B - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-454B

    Because of its reduced global warming potential (GWP), R-454B is intended to be an alternative to refrigerant R-410A in new equipment. [2] [3] [4] R-454B has a GWP of 466, which is 78 percent lower than R-410A's GWP of 2088. [2] R-454B is non-toxic and mildly flammable, with an ASHRAE safety classification of A2L. In the United States, it is ...

  6. Internally grooved copper tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internally_grooved_copper_tube

    The phasing out of CFC and HCFC refrigerants (e.g., HCFC-22, also known as R22) due to global warming concerns has helped to spur innovations in cooling technologies. [23] [24] Natural refrigerants such as carbon dioxide and propane , as well as R-410A, have become attractive replacements for air conditioning and refrigeration applications.

  7. Freon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freon

    Chlorodifluoromethane (R-22 or HCFC-22), a type of Freon. [9] [10] Dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12 or CFC-12), the most commonly used Freon brand refrigerant prior to its ban in many countries in 1996 and total ban in 2010. 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a or HFC-134a), one of the main replacements for the formerly widespread R-12.

  8. Air source heat pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_source_heat_pump

    Replacements such as R-32 and R-410A are being promoted as environmentally friendly but still have a high GWP. [69] A heat pump typically uses 3 kg of refrigerant. With R-32 this amount still has a 20-year impact equivalent to 7 tons of CO 2, which corresponds to two years of natural gas heating in an average household. Refrigerants with a high ...

  9. List of refrigerants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_refrigerants

    For example, R-22 has one carbon atom, one hydrogen atom (2−1 = 1), two fluorine atoms, and one chlorine atom (4−2−1 = 1), so it is chlorodifluoromethane, while R-134 has two carbon atoms (2−1 = 1), two hydrogen atoms (3−1 = 2), four fluorine atoms, and no chlorine atoms (6−2−4 = 0), so it is one of the tetrafluoroethanes. This ...
