Properties and Application of R134a Refrigerant

We all know that no matter what product has its own properties and application directions, R134a refrigerant is no exception. The commonly used refrigerant R134a, the general application is mainly automotive refrigerant is well known. In fact, there are still many chemical properties and wide applications of refrigerant R134a, as detailed below.

R134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane) is a widely used medium and low temperature environmentally friendly refrigerant. It has good overall performance. R134a is a refrigerant that does not contain chlorine atoms, has no damaging effect on the ozone layer, and has good performance (non-flammable, non-explosive, non-toxic, non-irritating, non-corrosive), and its cooling capacity and efficiency are similar to R-12 ( Dichlorodifluoromethane, Freon) are very close, so it is regarded as a long-term replacement refrigerant. R-134a is currently internationally recognized as a good environmentally friendly alternative to R-12. It does not destroy the ozone layer at all. It is an environmentally friendly refrigerant recognized and recommended by most countries in the world. It is also a mainstream environmentally friendly refrigerant. It is widely used in the initial installation and maintenance of new refrigeration and air conditioning equipment. R134a has very low toxicity and is not flammable in air.

R-134a is a widely used medium and low temperature environmentally friendly refrigerant. Due to its good comprehensive properties, R-134a makes it a very effective alternative to R-12. It is mainly used in most fields using R12 refrigerant, including refrigerators, freezers, water dispensers, automotive air conditioners, air conditioners, dehumidifiers, cold storage, commercial refrigeration, and ice water machines, ice cream machines, refrigeration condensing units, and other refrigeration equipment. It can be used in aerosol propellants, medical aerosols, insecticide propellants, polymer (plastic) physical foaming agents, and magnesium alloy protective gases. R-134a can be widely used as a refrigerant in automobile air conditioners, refrigerators, air conditioners, commercial refrigeration, and other industries, and can be used in medicine, pesticides, cosmetics, and cleaning industries.
