Dichlorodifluoromethane (R-12) is a colorless gas popularly known by the genericized brand name Freon (as Freon-12). It is a chlorofluorocarbon halomethane (CFC) used as a refrigerant and aerosol spray propellant .
The table is sortable by each of the following refrigerant properties (scroll right or reduce magnification to view more properties): Type/prefix (see legends) ASHRAE number; IUPAC chemical name; molecular formula; CAS registry number / blend name; Atmospheric lifetime in years; Semi-empirical ozone depletion potential, ODP (normalized to be 1 ...
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. Opteon halogenated olefins now replacing Freons in many applications.
HC-12a, also called ES-12a, OZ-12a, DURACOOL 12a [1] and Hydrocarbon Blend B, is marketed as a "drop-in" replacement refrigerant for R-12 and other refrigerants. HC-12a is a mixture of hydrocarbons, specifically propane (R-290) and isobutane (R-600a), and is therefore considered nearly non-ozone-depleting.
HCFC-123 is used in large tonnage centrifugal chiller applications, and is the most efficient refrigerant currently in use in the marketplace for HVAC applications. HCFC-123 is also used as a testing agent for bypass leakage of carbon adsorbers in gas filtration systems, and as the primary chemical in Halotron I fire-extinguishing agent.
1-Chloro-1,1-difluoroethane (HCFC-142b) is a haloalkane with the chemical formula C H 3 C Cl F 2.It belongs to the hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) family of man-made compounds that contribute significantly to both ozone depletion and global warming when released into the environment.
Dichlorofluoromethane was used as a propellant and refrigerant. Due to its role in ozone depletion, dichlorofluoromethane has been largely phased out.It has ozone depletion potential 0.04.
Polyolester oil (POE oil) is a type of wax-free synthetic oils used in refrigeration compressors that is compatible with the refrigerants R-134a, R-410A, and R-12. [1] POE oils are used as a lubricant in systems using the refrigerant HFC-134a when replacing CFC-12 , as these systems traditionally use mineral oil , [ 2 ] which HFC-134a does not ...
