Key Specifications

Industrial Applications

The versatility of 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane extends across multiple sectors, driven by its efficiency and safety profile compared to legacy chlorinated compounds. Primary uses include:

• Refrigeration and Air Conditioning: Serves as a primary refrigerant gas in automotive and stationary cooling systems.
• Aerosol Propellants: Utilized in pharmaceutical metered-dose inhalers and personal care products due to its non-flammable nature.
• Blowing Agents: Employed in the production of polymer foams for insulation and packaging materials.
• Specialty Solvent: Acts as a cleaning agent for sensitive electronic components and precision machinery.

Storage and Handling

Proper handling is essential to maintain product integrity and ensure safety. This chemical is stable under normal conditions but should be kept away from active metals and strong oxidizing agents. Storage facilities must be cool, dry, and well-ventilated, protected from direct sunlight and open flames. Cylinders should be secured to prevent physical damage. While stable, users must be aware of environmental regulations regarding greenhouse gas emissions and handle the material in accordance with local safety guidelines.
