R-134a is the best replacement of R-12.Main applications: blend component for mobile and stationary air conditioning, and for domestic refrigerators/freezers;propellant for extruded polystyrene foams.
Specifications
- Environment HFC-134a
- Ecological properties:
- Tetrafluoroethane, when released to the environment, partitions almost exclusively into the atmosphere. Degradation of tetrafluoroethane will occur mainly in the troposphere by reaction with hydroxyl radicals leading to trifluoroacetic acid, formic acid, hydrofluoric acid and carbon dioxide as ultimate degradation products. The overall atmospheric lifetime is 14 years. Tetrafluoroethane has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 1300 relative to CO2 at 100 years

- Joint Assessment of Commodity Chemicals No. 31
- HFC-134a (1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane)
- ECETOC, February 1995
- IPCC, climate change 2001, third assessment report, Cambridge university press, 2001.
- Ecotoxicological properties
- Environmental testing of tetrafluoroethane has only been carried out on aquatic organisms. As tetrafluoroethane is a gas special procedures were employed to obtain solutions of the test substance and to prevent losses occurring during the test. All exposure concentrations were analytically verified.
