R-22 is the refrigerant that contains CFC (chlorofluorocarbon). R-134a does not contain CFCs but is considered an HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) refrigerant. R-500 contains a mixture of CFC-12 and CFC-22. R-123 is a halocarbon refrigerant but does not contain CFCs specifically.
R 500
The example of CFC is R-12. It is being used as a refrigerant.
Refrigerant R-290, which is propane, is a flammable refrigerant unacceptable under SNAP as a substitute for CFC-12 due to its safety concerns related to flammability.
R-22 until the year 2010.. then R-410 (puron) propane gas is also a direct drop in but it must be dried
Depends on which type of refrigerator. Some industrial units still use pure ammonia. The CFC refrigerators typically used R12, just like car air conditioners, and likewise switched to R-134a (HFC 134a) when the further production of R-12 was banned.
Some common CFCs used in refrigerators were R-12 (dichlorodifluoromethane) and R-22 (chlorodifluoromethane). However, most refrigerators now use HFCs (hydrofluorocarbons) such as R-134a as a more environmentally friendly alternative.
It's a CFC refrigerant.
CFC's are some of the refrigerants. They are the ones causing most of the damage.
All of them are CFCs: R-11 (trichlorofluoromethane) R-12 (dichlorofluoromethane) R-22 chlorodifluoromethane) R-113 (trichlorotrifluoroethane) Non-CFC refrigerants include R-32 (difluoromethane), R-125 (pentafluoroethane), R-134a (tetrafluoroethane), R-410a (difluoromethane and pentafluoroethane)
Yes. R-12 is a CFC which destroys ozone.
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are a group of refrigerants that contain carbon, chlorine, and fluorine atoms. Some common CFC refrigerants include R-12 and R-11, which are widely known for their ozone-depleting properties. Due to their environmental impact, the use of CFC refrigerants has been phased out in many countries.
