US AC companies act to ease R454B refrigerant shortage
US air conditioning manufacturers are working to resolve the R454B refrigerant shortage caused by supply chain issues and rising demand after the US AIM Act’s implementation.
Air conditioning: which refrigerant will become the leading alternative to R410A?
R32 is being adopted widely for residential and small commercial air conditioning applications, but R466A, R452B and R454B are promising candidates, especially for larger size systems.
Purdue highlights: R410A “drop-ins”performance
According to a paper presented at Purdue in July 2016, two new “drop-in” alternatives to R410A are said to have exhibited very similar performance in experimental tests. This paper will be available in Fridoc in te near future.
IJR highlights: review of low-GWP alternative refrigerants
In a recent review article based on over 60 published studies and published in the International Journal of Refrigeration, Chinese researchers have compared nearly 40 alternative low-GWP refrigerants in terms of...
Air conditioning: towards a relaxation of the rules for the use of flammable refrigerants
While the European Commission is paving the way for the use of flammable refrigerants as an alternative for split systems, the current revision of the international standard IEC 60335-2-40 should allow higher...
New R134a alternatives in mobile air conditioning
Two new refrigerant blends are considered as an R134a alternative and "virtually non-flammable".
R410A/R22 alternatives for AC in high-ambient temperature environments: R32 and R290
The final US Oak Ridge National Laboratory report – presented during MOP27 in Dubaï – compares the performance of low-GWP alternative refrigerants to HFC R410A in mini-split air conditioners (ACs) under high-ambient-temperature conditions.
