R141b Refrigerant Gas with High Purity Ready Stock

R-141b is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) refrigerant used in air conditioning, refrigeration, and other cooling applications. However, as of my last knowledge update in September 2021, its usage has been significantly restricted due to its adverse environmental impact, particularly on ozone depletion potential (ODP). HCFCs like R-141b are being phased out globally under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.

Here are some specifications and characteristics of R-141b:

Chemical Formula: CH3CCl2F

Boiling Point: -24.7°C (-12.5°F)

Critical Temperature: 210.2°C (410.4°F)

Critical Pressure: 4.08 MPa (41.8 atm)

Molecular Weight: 116.95 g/mol

Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP): 0.11 (compared to CFC-11, with an ODP of 1)

Global Warming Potential (GWP): Approximately 725 (over a 100-year time horizon, relative to carbon dioxide)

CAS Number: 1717-00-6

It’s important to note that due to its adverse environmental effects, R-141b is no longer recommended or widely used, and alternatives with lower ODP and GWP have been developed to replace it. Common alternatives include hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) like R-134a and R-410A, or natural refrigerants like carbon dioxide (R-744) and hydrocarbons (e.g., propane and isobutane). Always refer to the latest regulations and recommendations in your region regarding refrigerant usage.
