How are fluorinated gases used in industry?
Fluorinated gases, such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs), are commonly used in various industries for applications such as refrigeration, air conditioning, foam blowing, and electronics manufacturing. These gases are prized for their high efficiency, stability, and non-toxicity. However, they are also potent greenhouse gases that contribute to global warming and ozone depletion. As a result, there has been a global effort to phase out the use of fluorinated gases in favor of more environmentally-friendly alternatives.
