Increasing concerns about the impact of refrigerants on the environment are driving new regulatory policies to restrict and lower the global warming potential (GWP) impact of fluorocarbon refrigerants used in the HVAC&R industry. In response, the industry is developing and examining a new class of lower GWP refrigerants, many of which are potentially less stable chemistry. As this transition moves forward, many questions exist about chemical stability and materials compatibility of these molecules in these applications. This seminar will highlight research of these next-generation refrigerants and how they interact with common materials of construction and chemicals.
