R134A Refrigerant

Product code : 08

R134a (HFC-134a) is a non-ozone depleting hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant widely used in automotive air conditioning, domestic refrigerators, and as an aerosol propellant. It replaced R12 (CFC-12) in many applications due to its zero ozone depletion potential, offering a safer alternative for the environment.

R134a is a colorless, non-flammable (A1 safety classification) refrigerant with excellent thermodynamic stability. It is available in multiple packaging sizes (340g to 56kg) and is offered under trusted brands such as Euro, Maxref, Iceron, Kalton, Refron, Floron, Klea, Kelvin, JH, and Snow White.

While R134a does not harm the ozone layer (ODP = 0), it has a relatively high global warming potential (~1,430 GWP), making it subject to gradual replacement in favor of low-GWP and eco-friendly refrigerants.

Key Properties of R134a Refrigerant:

  • Chemical Name: 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane (CF₃CH₂F)
  • Form: Liquid/Gas
  • Purity: ≥99.9%
  • Packaging: 340g, 1kg, 13.6kg, 56kg

R134a continues to be a reliable choice for automotive cooling and domestic refrigeration, but industries are increasingly transitioning to eco-friendly alternatives with lower GWP for sustainable cooling solutions.
