McLinden* and Marcia L. Huber Cite This: J. Chem. Eng. Data 2020, 65, 4176−4193 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: As we enter the “fourth generation” of refrigerants, we consider the evolution of refrigerant molecules, the ever- changing constraints and regulations that have driven the need to consider new molecules, and the advancements in the tools and property models used to identify new molecules and design equipment using them. These separate aspects are intimately intertwined and have been in more-or-less continuous development since the earliest days of mechanical refrigeration, even if sometimes out-of-sight of the mainstream refrigeration industry. We highlight three separate, comprehensive searches for new refrigerantsin the 1920s, the 1980s, and the 2010sthat sometimes identified new molecules, but more often, validated alternatives already under consideration. A recurrent theme is that there is little that is truly new. Most of the “new” refrigerants, from R-12 in the 1930s to R- 1234yf in the early 2000s, were reported in the chemical literature decades before they were considered as refrigerants. The search for new refrigerants continued through the 1990s even as the hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) were becoming the dominant refrigerants in commercial use. This included a return to several long-known natural refrigerants. Finally, we review the evolution of the NIST REFPROP database for the calculation of refrigerant properties.

  • Finding Refrigerant Leaks with the Chempro100i
    Application Note: 108 Finding Refrigerant Leaks with the ChemPro100i The ChemPro100i is a great sniffer for halocarbon refrigerants, often generically referred to as “Freon” because of its multiple sensors and broad sniffing capability. As refrigerant sniffers are only carried by a small subset of first responders, the ChemPro100i can fill the role for those that don’t have a refrigerant sniffer. As a bonus, if someone suspects that it may be a refrigerant leak, and it turns out to be something else, the wide range of detectable gases and vapors seen by the ChemPro100i means that it will most likely find the unexpected gas/vapor too. The ChemPro100i’s Sensors The ChemPro100i uses a suite of seven sensors including an aspirated Ion Mobility Spectroscopy (IMS), five metal oxide sensors and a field effect sensor to detect, characterize, and even identify, some gases and vapors. Using this suite of sensors, the ChemPro100i can find halocarbon refrigerant leaks using its “Trend” or “sniffer” screen. As one gets closer to the refrigerant leak, the trend line will Using other Sniffers for increase. This is a non-quantifiable reading Refrigerants that does not directly correlate with parts per Most dedicated refrigerant detectors use a million (ppm), but the fast response of the Metal Oxide Sensor (MOS) that is doped to ChemPro100i to refrigerants provides one with be relatively specific to the halogenated the means of quickly finding a refrigerant leak. hydrocarbons (halogens) that are the hallmark of most refrigerants.

OCCUPATIONAL EXPOSURE TO DECOMPOSITION PRODUCTS of FLUOROCARBON POLYMERS U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, EDUCATION, AND WELFARE Public Health Service Center for Disease Control National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health September 1977 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D.C. 20402 DHEW (NIOSH) Publication No. 77-193 PREFACE The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 emphasizes the need for standards to protect the health and safety of workers exposed to an ever-increasing number of potential hazards at their workplace. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health has projected a formal system of research, with priorities determined on the basis of specified indices, to provide relevant data from which valid criteria for effective standards can be derived. Recommended standards for occupational exposure, which are the result of this work, are based on the health effects of exposure. The Secretary of Labor will weigh these recommendations along with other considerations such as feasibility and means of implementation in developing regulatory standards. It is intended to present successive reports as research and epidemiologic studies are completed and as sampling and analytical methods are developed. Criteria and standards will be reviewed periodically to ensure continuing protection of the worker. I am pleased to acknowledge the contributions to this report on the decomposition products of fluorocarbon polymers by members of the NIOSH staff and the valuable constructive comments by the Review Consultants on the Decomposition Products of Fluorocarbon Polymers and by Robert B.
