It is a refrigerant used in air conditioning systems, designed as an environmentally friendlier alternative to older refrigerants. This substance helps transfer heat, enabling air conditioners to cool indoor spaces.
Its significance lies in its reduced impact on the ozone layer and lower global warming potential compared to earlier refrigerants. The development and adoption of this type of refrigerant reflects increasing awareness and regulatory pressure regarding the environmental consequences of air conditioning technology. Using this specific type of refrigerant can contribute to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
