Environmental regulations across the globe are shifting refrigerant standards to low-GWP alternatives and pushing energy efficiency standards to higher levels.Simultaneously, electrification efforts are driving more widespread adoption of heat pumps to replace fossil-fuel powered furnaces and boilers.

To support these transition efforts Arkema has developed a very-low GWP refrigerant, Forane 516A, to replace R-134a in medium to low temperature applications in refrigeration, chillers, air conditioning, and heat pumps. Arkema will present Forane 516A and provide information on how this refrigerant can help achieve GWP reduction, energy efficiency, and regulator ...
