What is R 134a?


1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane  http://www.boulingchem.com/category/R134a.html
is an inert gas used primarily as a "high-temperature" refrigerant for domestic refrigeration and automobile air conditioners. Other uses include plastic foam blowing, as a cleaning solvent and as a propellant for the delivery of pharmaceuticals (e.g. bronchodilators), canned air, and in air driers, i.e., for removing the moisture from compressed air. Moisture present in compressed air has a harmful effect on pneumatic systems. Tetrafluoroethane has also been used to cool computers in some overclocking attempts. It is also commonly used as a power source for airsoft airguns.
In fluorocarbon industry, its growth rate will be lower than total fluorine chemical industry’s growth rate. Of course, every kind of products also exist big difference. According the requirement of Montreal Protocol, developed countries has reached the final stage of weeding out ODS substance HCFCs, while it will gradually decrease in developing countries since 2015. Hence, the demand of HCFC will gradually reduce in 2016. As for HCF market, it has a rapid growth in 10 years from 2001 to 2011 and it will develop to an important product which can replace HCFCS http://boulingchem.com/category/HCFC-123.html
in developing countries. However, HCFCS’ high GWP value limit its development, especially in West European, HFO product with low GWP value has become one important part in the market. While for other fluorine products, due to the demand expansion of high performance material in automobile engine, chemical process, electronic and coating market, fluorine resin products’ demand increase rapidly. As fluorine resin products are not popular in many regions, it will bring a huge space for developing this product in the market. Because of the sharp increase demand of Aluminum products, the growth range of inorganic and special fluorine products will reach the average level in the whole industry. In addition, semi-conductor, the increasing output of battery and other electric components will also push the demand of special gas and other high-value fluorine products.
